I have been off line for about 5 days as my email address had been hijacked
and spam had been sent out under my name.
My provider told me of this and I had to run my virus scanner in deep mode
and "make my password more secure". This was the key to it as I had a town
name as a password and was apparently easy to crack. (Why would I have
chosen "Olney"? :) )
The deep scan showed that my computer had no major problems. It was just
that I was hijacked somewhere along the line.
The advice I received (ad took)was to have a longer password, include upper
and lower case letters and also numerals.

You sent it to me? I never got it. But I figured out from the recent
postings what it must have been.
Since it hasn't generated further activity (apart from discussion on
Arachne), I think it's safe to ignore it.
