If you use hotmail then you are wide open to span.

  Subject: [access-uk] Spam from my Niece's E-mail Account


  I am wondering if someone would know the answer.  My Niece has a Hotmail 
e-mail account.  It would appear that someone or somehow her address book 
contacts have been contactged and we are all receiving an e-mail from her (but 
not her, if you see what I mean, it is Spam) and I wonder how this can be 
prevented as it reflects very badly on her particularly where professional 
people she has come in to contact with are receiving these e-mails.  I 
suggested she close the Account.  I know I can block the e-mails and that is 
not a problem for me but people like lawyers and Principles and I mean pleural, 
yes are receiving these e-mails from her.  Any ideas how to stop it?  The 
professional people are getting very annoyed about this.  At first it was 
understandable but it is now reflecting badly on her.
