| 1285064 | 2012-07-01 21:37:00 | Some weeks ago I received an email purporting to come from a friend. It was a website about weight reducing drops. Yesterday I got another one from a different friend. I was not the only one to receive these mails fvrom these friends Could this point to something on my computer causing this. Anyone else experiencing this? |

| 1285069 | 2012-07-01 23:05:00 | Your friend's emails have probably been hacked. Tell them about it. And then get them to run antivirus ... malware ... spyware. If that doesn't stop it, maybe post a HJT Log and see if anyone can see something. |
