Be warned that there is an email spam making the rounds. This is a copy of one that I got from my favorite Cajun recently (3 times!). Evidently it must copy someone's email addy's and sends out their spam message. But I have gotten similar ones from other people also. Keep your antivirus etc scanners up to date! Hello
What have you been up to ?
Tell you a good news. At last few days, My fellow John met a friend from China.You know. Where is the world's factory.All the things is very cheap.
The price of products is great low from there. But very perfect. It’s incredible!
For example: laptops, cell phone, digital cameras, LCD TV, GPS and so on.
You can log on their website www(dot)day-buy(dot).com..
I would like you to have a pleasant shopping!
Clever spammers!

Similar thing happened to me at one of my "hotmail" accounts last year. Make sure you check/change all settings on your email account. My Auto Reply/Vacation Reply was changed to send out their message as well. Scan your PC, change your login passwords and double check those email settings. Needless to say, double check other accounts/passwords after you scan the pc.
Curious if it was a hotmail account, another web email account or your ISP account?

We all realize our Cajun buddies have a different language --- but even for them this email was a bit odd! No clicky linky  And here I thought I had gotten an email from far away land

I have gotten these on both hotmail and my ISP mail accounts.
Interestingly enough, sent a separate message to my favorite Cajun, and got a reply back WITH THE SAME MESSAGE AGAIN!
Bastages, hijacking address books!

I'm no longer accepting spam emails from chinese, cajun's, arkies, okies, a few texans and all new yorkers.  that should just about leave my email inbox empty. Raymond
