Maybe I can put some lite on it: Probably the problems were caused by me (deeply ashamed!) because my computer was breevly invested by that new KLEZ virus and because I am member of the list, a lot may have had that virus from me resulting in generating KLEZ invested rubish mails from them as well. Because I can send no attachments, I cannot sent a tool I got from Symantec to find and remove the virus. Please look on the sites from major Antivirus company's for this tool and scan your PC's (ofcourse you with Linux, Apple or MSX computers used for reading mail are not infected)
