There is a website I visited because a friend had sent me a link to it, although I found out later it was because he had been hacked and the link was sent to me automatically. But I clicked on it, and it wanted me to enter a bunch of personal information, and I did not. Instead I just hit the back button and another window popped up asking me if I really wanted to leave, and I hit OK and went back to the previous page.
The website is atomopia.com. I googled it and only found one answer:
Okay atomopia.com(Tell A Friend)wtf is this website? - Yahoo! Answers (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080819235224AAnyzO3)
I want to know if the person who answered the question is right? Am I OK as long as I did not enter any personal information?

I had a post similar to this earlier about keyloggers and I apologize for the extra precautions. I just don't know much about computers and worry I'm going to mess something up.

Your fine.

Stop clicking links in emails without a browser that properly catches phishing sites. Practice Safe Surfing.
