I don't know about anyone else, but for the last two days I've been receiving anonymous e mails from an address, simply as ILM Mecidikoy. No name is included.

The first email had the subject "Sexy." When I tried to download the pic, I was told that it had a Trojan Virus for which there was no cure.

I replied asking the sender to not send me anymore emails, especially without a name. Well the next day I received four more, again with no name.

I have enough virus probs. here in Ist., I don't need any assistance from anonymous senders.

So be on the look out.

There's a lot of it about.

I'd be wary of anything from ILM though............................

(did I just type that)?

Ahhh, 1 important spam rule broken, I'm afraid. Never open anything from an English course marked "sexy"...hey, that can never be right.
