Strider, check your settings and find your "vacation response" box. Mine was coming from that.

Thanks Jack! Yep, that was where mine was at to boot.
Also did a full scan and there were some adware viruses as well.
Thanks......
And, ummmmmmm, just what a southern boy needs - spelling police. You know how it is, they don't learn us good down here.

My computer was clean. The problem seems to be in G-mail. Was wondering if the chinese are targeting Google due to their recent disagreements.

*Attention*
You folks with a gmail account need to change your password immediately if this happened to you! Use good passwords(nothing found in a dictionary and at least a number or extra character in the password)
I think this is happening to more than just gmail people, as msn and yahoo accounts have also been compromised! In other words, its a really good time to change your email password regardless if you have been hijacked!
