Products linked to "Microsoft Outlook Help" from Portugal?
 
I have aq problem with "dulpicate emails" in Outlook 2003 so I click on the
"Microsoft Outlook Help" and saw the link to a "Duplicate Email Remover."
After clicking on the link, I was sent to a page where I can purchace the
"add on." After my purchase, I received a message that it might take 36
hours to get an email for instructions to download the product since this
"person" is in Portugal. I thougt that I was purchacing a product from
Microsoft or one of their affiliates.
I recommend that you check out the "Microsoft Outlook Help" feature and see
if the links are authorized by Microsoft. It this one is authorized, please
let me know so I can be more careful next time before trusting anything I see
from Microsoft. Generally, I trust everything form Microsoft without
hesitation.

the links are authorized by Microsoft - that is part of their office
marketplace feature. The best thing to do is be aware of the url you are
being redirected to - the sales are not done on a microsoft.com site but on
the sellers on domain.
