# Reet,
I keep getting emails which say 'This is a WinXP patch. I wish you would like it.' Only today it was an IE 6.0 patch. Every time I get one it's carrying a virus (even though today's didn't even have the attachment), they're from two or three addresses I don't know, and ever since I've been getting them I also get things from their mail servers saying my reply could not be delivered, even though i haven't sent one.

Any ideas how I make them fuck right off?

# how can you light
the letterbox?
surely you would have to light a match (or lighter)

# Looks like you have a virus
if you're sending emails back without knowing...

# no
read up on klez. (well you *might* have a virus, but you can have all this activity without being infected.)

# Just warning her to be careful!
We had lots of klez emailed to us a while back. Got shot of it all now though.

# i'm getting over 100 per day
it's utterly ruined my email. I miss half the things I should reply to. Fucksticks.

# Christy

# I got loads of klez stuff a while back,
but whoever it was coming from knocked it on the head and it stopped.
Not much you can do about it until they sort it out at their end reely.

# my email addr is in too many inboxes
it's got to the stage where I'm thinking about blocking all email, changing email addr and directing people to a form. My account has become almost unusable.

# It's a fucker.
At least with a virus you can just kill your pc and start again.
