Cheers for that Alan

I have had about 5 different emails in the last 2 weeks from 5 people i have never heard of but the subject line has been the same from all of them.

The subject line is "fine" so I think I can safely assume that this is some sort of virus that attaches itself to peoples address book & manifests itself like this!

I've never opened them just deletyed them to be safe.

HI Botty.
 i often get forwards saying beware of this and that its a virus, but when i check on them their normally hoaxes,  it saves  passing this rubbish on to all your friends too,
you can normaly open them save enough,  but if you click on any links thats when you let them in,
i usually report them as spam from companies asking me to update my details ect..
others get deleted without opening,  that way they will give up in the end thinking your account is dead,
they could be porn or for Pills and you don't want them tracking you anyhow when you go on them
 Glad you found it of good use Botty, i do too,
 Alan
