Red face Unwanted email. Sorry folks.

It seems I've had an unwelcome visitor to my Yahoo account and they decided to send out a few emails on my behalf. I'm pretty sure it was not a virus as I've been incommunicado in the bush for the past day and a half and my computers were all turned off. As it came from my Yahoo account I can only assume I had an unwelcome visitor via Yahoo. PW changed and hopefully that will be the end of it.

I'm sure someone will let me know if it keeps up.

Nothing since last night Paul, changing the password must have done the trick.

No worries Paul... I looked at the list of people it was sent to and since it was sent well before when I was reading it, I figured you probably would have been well informed.

Children have such a bizzare idea of fun sometimes I have no idea how people get pleasure out of that sort of stuff.

When I went to log on to IIS just before I got this message.
I think everyone should change their passwords for both their Email, FaceBook and IceInSpace.
