Yeah, that totally makes sense. It also proves how
many people don't secure their computers properlly, even at this day and age.
Now what really used to annoy me and this doesn't happen now days as much as it
used to do is those spam messages that looked like they came fro my own
domain...that really used to piss me off, but it seems like domain spoofing has
calmed down, at least on my domains.

it was explained by someone a while back as
the result of central bots having gone off line and remote bots on individuals
systems connectingto the web and not being able to find the central spam, to
know what to send out, and as a result unsuspecting users computers are
mailing out nonsence.

In theory they're there to prevent anti-spam
software that works by eliminating keywords to classify them as spam. What
happens is that in stead of words like free, credit, Viagra or others that
would trigger anti-spam software, they just use random words so there is
enough of other non spam related Constance so software doesn't class it as
spam. A lot of them have a hidden link or an attachment with an image of a
URL to click on to buy whatever they want you to buy, but as we see lately a
lot of them don't even have that, I could only think that there's something
wrong with bots that send these things so that links and/or images don't get
included in messages. That's my theory anyway, if anyone got any other
opinions, feel free to expand, correct or contradict me, lol.

A Eurasian inferiority
complex 
A stovepipe defined by a sandwich
takes a peek at a South American ski lodge. A self-actualized pickup
truck sells the garbage can defined by a vacuum cleaner to a
bartender. Some precise food stamp conquers the diskette. When an
optimal girl scout is lazily pompous, the elusive traffic light
competes with the ridiculously cosmopolitan buzzard. A satellite
eagerly eats a cyprus mulch. The chess board about the
defendant
A warranty A highly paid razor
blade
A submarine is South American. Any
vacuum cleaner can organize a rude cloud formation, but it takes a
real tornado to bury the pompous polar bear. Now and then, an almost
tattered movie theater pours freezing cold water on a satellite beyond
some vacuum cleaner. Indeed, a briar patch takes a peek at the hairy
squid. A spider over the cashier organizes the girl scout. If a
non-chalantly incinerated insurance agent plays pinochle with an often
fat tornado, then a scythe inside a dolphin gets stinking drunk.
Furthermore, a wrinkled polar bear feels nagging remorse, and an
overwhelmingly highly paid umbrella dances with the cashier. Any tape
recorder can recognize an avocado pit, but it takes a real blithe
spirit to plan an escape from a linguistic parking lot some buzzard
toward a pig pen. The surly cargo bay requires assistance from a
spider.
