Some time ago I started receiving emails with attachments
from hijinked Microsoft addresses. I was receiving one or
two a week. Then it became a couple a day. Yesterday I
was receiving two or three an hour. This morning I have
56 messages from Microsoft addresses all containing
downloads. I use Outlook Express. I have been blocking
and deleting the addresses as I receive them but the
overwhelming number this morning shocks me. Is there any
way I can stop this? Thanks!
