Ladies and Gentlemen: I'm not sure you understand. Dale, your computer may not have been hacked in any way. IF someone you know had your address on their list and they got hacked then your e-mail address is part of this problem that is going on. My MSN account was closed long before this started. It had nothing to do with MY computer being hacked. Keep your guard up, good spam and virus software, change your password regularly and don't open e-mail if you don't know who it is and never if there is no subject. I have received "no subject" from several people and have simply dropped them an e-mail asking if they sent it. Several had not some had and just forgot to put in subject matter. And for what it is worth, it is my belief that Bill Gates did NOT design his software to be spied on and hacked. If anyone did it, it was George W ;) Steve ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Rankin" <David@rankinstudio.com> To: "Utah Astronomy" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Sunday, March 20, 2011 10:53:55 AM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] bad emails Dale, Try to download AVG free antivirus (its probably a trojan doing the emails) and when that is done - change the password to your email account. http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-free-antivirus Should fix it.

Sorry, I got hacked. I may be having to change email addresses. Apologies for the strange emails.
