I recieved this e-mail from someone by eminem8400
it said to open the attached file. Well, I didn’t and I threw it away. But, my curiosity tells me, what is it? Did anyone else recieve something like it?
It was a virus of some sort, most likely Klez.
Phew, good thing I didn’t let my curiosity take over. Thank you.
If you like that, join staff. You’ll get several of those a day!
Yeah, Seph invites me to Spice Girls concerts and Kagon wants me to check his beautiful girlfriend now and then…
Oh, and don’t forget all the mails about enlarging my penis O_o
How the hell do they get the address? I never gave my E-Mail to ANYONE and still I’m getting the “Now you can cheat on mother nature” stuff.
Merl emails me with info on “Movies” on a regular basis.

O_o’ Welcome to the age of random maniac spammers… Jesus!
rolls on the floor, laughing I think I saw a post where Val said they had also sent her that kind of junk… The only thing worse than a spammer is a dumb random spammer. I wish someone was to make spamming a crime against humanity… 
joins his hands Thank God for junk mail filters! Praised be His name!

They send out mass mails to every possible letter combination. Most of the time, they have a “Click to unsubscribe” thing. When you click that, it activates a form which signifies your e-mail as valid. Then they sell it.
Heh. I rarely get that sort of shit, what with my e-mail serivice being so uncommon and all.
Of course, there was the series I got one time about “Free Pizza for a year, pest control for a week, and a decades supply of FREE PANTYHOSE!!!”
I had all that and more. The penis enhancers, girl screwing a horse, free diplomas, you name it, my old email had it. Don’t click on any name you don’t recognize or any subject title that says nothing that you feel you don’t understand or never did. If anything, wait till you get to school, check your email there, so if there’s a virus, it wont be your computer that’s infected:D And then act like it never happened when the computer breaks down…
For some weird reason, I keep getting the junk about ‘male enhancement’. Oh, and free diplomas. And my brother keeps getting links to porn…falls about laughing His face!
So far I’ve found out about 20 ways of getting a bigger tool, 6 ways to get bigger boobs and 18 dental insurance plans.
Some of that spam is just sick… so depraved and demented… Thank God it is no longer taking precious inbox space. At one time, it got so bad, I had to delete them on a weekly basis. I just HATE spam! Some companies will do anything to advertise and some people will do anything to trick someone else.

Weekly? I’ve got do it daily and I’m not even a staffer.
That was before I got a connection at home, so I had to use the school library’s computers to check my e-mail account once in a while.

Every other hour for me.
You could do just like me: I go to a computer lab in the school, open the files, and if nothing goes wrong after a few hours, I might give some thought about taking it home.
