hello.
i just received from you a message, the top portion of which is
copied below. it was more than 2 megabytes in size. i have received
it due to irresponsible computer use on your part.
please either acquire and install a secure operating system (which
eliminates all varieties of windows), secure your windows machine, or
remove it from the internet. you are entitled to run a troublesome
operating system. you are not entitled to make your problems my
problems.
the top portion of the message is:
