email addresses are found by:
-
being autogenereated by software that the spammers use
-
taken from pages of websites including cached pages in the search engines
-
if a virus gets on a computer, it searches the hard drive for email addresses stored on it including the address book, webpages cached in your temporary internet files, saved emails, etc.
then it forwards a copy of the virus to any and all of those email addresses so if one person from TC has it and has the cached pages of TC on their computer then it will go out to all the emails that are listed on the site. Always best to spamproof your address when possible.
Best advice is don't ever open any ZIP or EXE files unless you KNOW what they are.
