461264 2006-06-06 22:32:00 Got an email last night, seemingly sent to me by myself, showing the message heading as 57657, the only text in it was another number : 5556.

There was no attachment and my a/virus cleared it.

Can anyone tell me how this can happen ?

461269 2006-06-07 03:10:00 At least it's not only me, thought it may have been one of those sinister virus type postings that come out on auspicious dates, like 06/06/06 - seems innocuous enough...? bazmeister (3216)
461270 2006-06-07 03:23:00 I have a gmail and i got the same thing, 969 was in the email.....

weird...

461271 2006-06-07 04:24:00 I also received one with the number 586876 in email...text showed 5556 (I peeked, via properties).

My husband said he received a similar thing through his kol email.

Anyone good at deciphering codes???

Cheers,
Marnie
