Chris, Your not the only one. We have the same problem here within our office. I am curious how many other people it effects too.

My anti-virus sw protects me well so I am not infected in any way (nor has anybody else here). Initially, I used to ignore the messages and delete them; after a couple of weeks I decided to trace the source IP from the mail header and send complaint messages to the corresponding ISP. But the Bast**d keeps finding other IP's to mail me from. Messages come from big () boss com. Is anyone else being targeted? Is this a common occurrence? Am I the only one? Cheers!
