Don't know why Kaspersky Internet Security is warning about phishing url for all the Amazon.in links. Has anyone else seen it?

I'm not using Kaspersky myself, but I'm guessing they simply mark certain high profile websides on not-known tlds as phishing sites.

I don't know from where you are buying 'foreign books for cheap' and I'm not sure if you are referring only to LPE text books. But most of the novels, and other books that I know are definitely expensive. Text books are not the only books. And of course it also depends on the definition of cheap. But pirated books sold on by footpath hawkers sell like hot cakes only because many foreign best sellers are generally exp…

You keep changing stance - most foreign books are not cheap(they are), technical books aren't the only books(no they are not; fiction is cheaper, non-fiction is a bit higher), and lastly 350 isn't cheap.
