Re: More than coincidence???
Brad It sounds very much like the latest virus outbreak and not spam. Here is a little information for you below. If you only only use a Mac and not Windows you have nothing to fear from it, but they are a nuisance. Dave Watkins W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] is a High-Outbreak mass-mailing worm flooding email servers worldwide. When run, the worm steals email addresses from the infected machine and also automatically generates random email addresses for propagation. This email generation engine is similar to technologies spammers use to generate addresses for spam email campaigns.

More than coincidence???
Today's e-mail included a nice attempt to send a virus to me with the sender listed as a Vic Park car-yard. I contacted the yard and warned the owner what had taken place and of course the nasty file labelled 'data.zip' was promptly trashed. What amused me was that when I checked my 'real' mail in my letter box I found a letter addressed to me saying that I could have complete virus protection for only $200. Hmmm... I wonder.
