I just got one from "Tayawhitestar"
is that one of the forumgoers?

well, but my email provider erased the annex with the virus Worm.Bagle.Gen-zippwd but informed me that it was there...

@ nic: that might be the best extension for a file that is carrying a virus "evil"

Yeah that's 17... So they don't all list us as our usernames, hm? So now I wonder, do they go around by multiple names per forumgoer? Not that it really matters... I'm just curious.

They appear to be using IM names, at least when possible

No, I mean they're putting IM names in the subject line or sender line or whatever if such names are available. For whatever reason :?

I've never used it, but I have received several of these infected emails, all with regular email addresses. I'm thinking a spybot may be picking them up off the email buttons found at the bottom of each post.

That's FREAKY.

I haven't gotten any of those, truthfully... for which I am thankful. But then again, neither of the three email addresses I use regularly are associated with this board; I haven't yet checked the one which is.

If someone, or something is hacking into the board databases I think we oughta let someone on the PhpBB admin know about it. It's scary.

A while back, I got a few bounced messages from Zeke, but none directed at me.

I highly doubt anybody's hacking into the database. More likely, they're just collecting the emails from everybody's profiles.

We're all going to die! *screams and runs around in a circle*

I think it's time we implemented some of our "protect your planet" procedures. :wink:
