Ick... no.

There's no way to stop that except to change your email address.

And if they have a virus infected attachment, then it wasn't a person that sent it. It was from someone who got infected by a virus, and the virus in turn mails itself out to every email address it can find stored in that persons computer. Some of the better written viruses can collect email addresses from the people before it and modify itself to include those addresses when it infects the next person.

If it's just spam, then yes, someone is sending it to you on purpose. People get paid to send out spam email.

Agreed switch your email address. Make it a cool name with lots of significance. Take some of mine for [email protected] [email protected] [email protected].....thing is you send any mail to an address with osprex.com (anything goes here).com and it comes wizzing across the information highway hell-bent on finding me. Now that is a beautiful thing.

You should go ahead and get a new email account, but if you do, don't change it on your profile at this forum....Arioch did that once and nearly had a heart attack because it was saying "May not Post"...."may not receive PMs"..."May not send PMs"....and the name "Arioch" wasn't even in the members list, anymore...This is what I heard..."OMG, I think I got banned!"...LMAO...Can you imagine, Arioch getting BANNED?!...LOL...AS IF!....Oh well, it was funny at the time, guess you had to be there...Ummm...What was this thread about?...OH YEAH...

Last Bad Move, if you decide to get a new account, try Hotmail.Com...I have 4 email accounts and my Hotmail is my favorite, plus I don't have any of the problems that you have described...Wouldn't hurt to try:)
