Hey Guys, SS here. Just want to warn everyone here that my email's been hacked by spambots, and it's been sending spam email to everyone in my contact list. I'm still trying to fix the problem, but in the meantime, if anyone on my contacts list (I'm not sure of any of them are forum regulars anymore) gets strange email from me around now, be sure to ignore/delete it.

That's been happening a lot all over the place.  Make sure you change your email password - that fixed the problem in one instance I know of.

Yeah, I changed my email, but first I had to go through a lot of hoops with hotmail because they froze up my account to stop it from sending more spam. I fixed the problem now though; I'm pretty sure it's not doing it any more.
