Current News Affecting our Online Bank

I hope you know that you should NEVER click on a link in a bank email - even if it does seem to come from your bank.  ALWAYS enter the address of your bank directly into your browser.  If I point at the link in this email (don't click), this is the web address displayed at the bottom left of my screen - http://24.248.219.72/_vti_conf/ - it's not the address of the Halifax bank.
