For years, I have always wondered what the spam problem was because I had never experienced it! Naturally I have always been very careful not to display my e-mail addresses where they could be "browsed"
However, yesterday one of my addresses received 100 hits, two of which I wanted to read, the other 98 were immediately deposited into the virus vault by AVG as they contained the mytob virus. Complain to my ISP who advertise the fact that all incoming e-mails are scanned for viruses? "Sorry - some do get through, just put up with it and it will eventually stop."
P.P.
