<a href=www.youtube.com style="font-family:System;color:green">Click here!</a>

People f.eks changing the "www.youtube.com" to a **** site.
Then they send it too people on Graal.

I know someone who did that too me.

Doesn't Graal already ask you if you want to open the url you're clicking? Pretty sure what you're describing is the exact reason for the implementation of that prompt. If you just read it, you'll see exactly which url you've been hyperlinked.

Would seem like a more malicious thing to do. Either way, never click on links that you're not aware of where it goes. Do urls in PMs show their real url in a hint when you hover over it? If so, then people definitely need to start doing that. Just like you shouldn't click any link on a website without checking the real destination in the status bar first. Even then, you shouldn't be clicking links unless it's from someone you know, or with extreme caution. Even if it's from someone you know, make sure it's a trusted link(I know I've had friends send me questionable links in aim/msn that I dare not even click). Chances are, you're not missing out on anything.

Also, forgot about what Door said... ya Graal asks you first before it links you externally to a website, and shows you the actual url. Come on, people. If you do these sort of things when not only playing Graal, but when browsing the internet as a whole, the world would have a lot less ****ed up computers.
