THIS IS CRAP!!!! I dare anyone 2 try and access the Club right now!!!!!
I go and click Access 2 type in my password in the grey box that comes up, then another page comes up prompting me 2 fill in my email address 2 receive a free gift of Musicology, which I do, then another page comes up wanting my shipping address, which is crap cos its only designed for US addresses,so I do the best I can with that, then click Continue, then up comes another page wanting me 2 click options for free rewards or gifts from such firms as Blockbuster, a cookbook Club and some others!!!!! In the end I had enough so I xed out the pages, and then filled out my username and password, then my computer froze!!! This is a load of shit and if Prince is resorting 2 such crass advertizing tactics as this then I am NEVER NEVER NEVER going into the Club again!!!!! The thing is all this started only from 2day!!!!

You've been had by spyware, which I repeat had nothing to do with Prince or the NPGMusicClub! Try using AdAware or Spybot Search and Destroy. Yahoo even has a tool bar that installs a spyware remover try that. Do something, just stop being so quick to blame Prince for YOUR CRAP!! | |
