IR17;m

Took me a while to figure it, but these odd things I have been getting in places in my emails that I recieve actually mean:

I'll
I'm

How do I fix this, so I see what I am meant to?

Oh, using Outlook Express

322922 2005-02-09 09:49:00 Headers of the e-mail might be a start, is it coming from somewhere foreign?

Maybe a screenshot of the message as well, am having some problems imagining it.

322925 2005-02-09 20:37:00 Is it happening in every email or just some? What version of Windows? FoxyMX (5)
322926 2005-02-09 20:39:00 If you look on Google you will see several pasted emails that have the same thing. No sign of a complaint or cure though.

Send yourself an email and see? (use the ' character a lot)
