793321	2009-07-20 10:13:00	Hi there, Just when I checked for my emails today I found two unusual emails in my Live Mail account . Both of them originates from postmaster@mail . hotmail . com, and they tell me that two emails have failed to deliver . However I didn't write ANY emails to anyone recently . In fact, the email is about some game site, and it's about making friends (according to that) . Apparently I didn't compose it; there is a line on the bottom: "this mail is automatically generated by the system, please do not reply" . The links are also pointing at [www . xinianlai . info] (the site is probably in Chinese; . info sites aren't safe, said someone . ) So did someone else wrote this email and sent it through my account? They are sending to two of my contacts, though . Could the author already hijacked my email account (I don't think so though . . . )? What can I do about it . Thanks in advance	LynX (14542)

There's no need for them to go to the trouble of hijacking your PC to do that. As Speedy says, just delete them.	MushHead (10626)
