Folks,
It is not important who sent spam. They are almost always due to
someone's email account being compromised, AOL and Yahoo are the most
common. The owner of that email account is almost never aware of this
but once alerted, needs to change their password.
So instead of asking who sent spam, use common sense measures, such as,
"hmmm, this is a strange subject", or no subject, which should be a red
flag. And if the link looks funny, you can bet its spam, especially when
there is no real explanation given.
And do not depend on an email list serv blocking such emails. They will
get thru no matter what. Finally, be assured this is a common event and
will not stop. So your best bet is to use anti virus and keep it
updated. And use common sense.
IMHO, this being as comon as I said above, its not worthy of
discussion. I receive so many of these on the various lists I am on.
This one will not the be the last one, trust me, :)

a woman in France.... She said "Cut it out"....

I second the email from Eileen. I did click on it. After I looked at the
site, I researched it on the Internet and saw that it was spam. Has this been
sent to all my contacts? It is too bad that this wasn't seen by someone at
Duxuser freelists immediately and alerted us then instead of a day later.
