This is it just showing that it found a link in the message, which it 
will have to check for phishing attacks. It doesn't mean it will 
actually alter the message, just that it needs to look at it further.

Check out the "notify senders" options. But do *NOT* switch on Notify 
Senders of Viruses as that will just spam people who didn't send you 
viruses, as all modern viruses fake the senders address, so that you 
cannot trace who really sent the message.
