My friend called an said that her freinds sent her many greeting cards, but she received na a one.I sent her 2 and she received both. She seems to get mail allright but no cards. She has msn.Her support told her that the web was tightening securit and that could be one problem. The other is that she could be looseing her HTML.They told her to update(she allread had )and every thing would be fine, wrong. Any help would be great. Do you need more info . I think she is useing 98.

A good portion of ecards are spam or contain viruses. After removing bonzai buddy and Friendgreetings viri, I block nearly all of them at work.

Re: not receiving cards

No loss there!! ECards are nothing more than another way to get your friends' and your names on the email lists of spammers.
When it was an original concept it was great; to be able to surprise ppl with cards. Now its just a tired reminder of simpler times when the net was free

Another option is have your friend check her junk mail box; a lot of cards probably go there if the filter level is set to high.
