I've gotten over 70 of them so far. They are all from outlook express, but I'm not sure what that has to do with it. Isn't Outlook just as bad?

I just alt-tabbed to this window and saw this reply box, don't even know what post I was going to reply to, so I send this message out into the world with no idea where it will be sent!

Haha Paco, nice Smile

I've received 150 so far - I think it's accelerating. Mostly from the same company, and I even called them and emailed them the address where they could download the cleaner program. Bah.

Yeah, i think CNN reported on it yesterday. Some sort of virus dealie. I don't think i've gotten even one yet, but i really wouldn't know since I get an average of like 150 junk mails a day anyway. I probably wouldn't be able to notice any difference :p
