As of 2 AM Friday the 19th I started getting approximately ten per hour. The volume has dropped off a fair bit, but it's still high and extremely irritating. There's a new worm on the loose. I forgot it's name already. Yet another thing to thank people who use OE on a PC for. Actually, the worm writer is really responsible, but it wouldn't be so easy for them if folks weren't using OE with all its obvious security flaws like sheep.
Funny how I use Outlook Express on XP and I don't see any of these messages!
The moral: NEVER use your real email return address when posting to ANY newsgroup - including this one! This address is real, but it's Hotmail, and Hotmail protects you from this stuff.
