Hey Em, I got an email at an address tonight, an email address that went unperturbed. It was spam-free, but I closed it for about a year and a half because I didn't need it. I recently opened it up again and all was quiet until tonight when I got an email from a "[email protected]". The text that preceeded an attachment labeled "file.zip" said something about the file being in "Unicode" and that it was a binary attachment.

This email is not registered at Caliente. I just registered it at paypal and at Tiki Central. These are the ONLY places. Did the virus you got arrive at an address that is registered here? I also received an email telling me that I had an unsuccessful email delivery to an address that I didn't recognise. This tells me that there might be one of those programs involved that forwards mail to people without your consent. I closed the email address again. If anyone needs to contact me, I reckon they will have to PM me!
