So far today, I have received over 1,000 spam emails in my inbox (yahoo!).

I'm doing my best to sort through them looking for legitimate email, but if you've sent me an email today, there's a decent chance that I missed it and deleted it along with the junk.

I can imagine one or two different reasons for this massive influx of spam.

1. One of those forward emails that everyone knows I enjoy so much has finally made it's way to a spammer and now my email address is on some list someplace.

2. Somebody I know has a computer that has been compromised in some way and my email address is in their address book.

3. Something else that I haven't even thought of. (Most Probable)

So once again, if you send me an email, I'll do everything I can to weed it out of the other crap I'm getting hammered with, but if I miss it, I apologize in advance. And if it's something important you may want to contact me by other means.

I'll post a follow-up here later.

Chris

Ha Ha!

I just logged into my yahoo! mail account and noticed that my 50mb account is at 41% due to about 16mb worth of crap in the junk mail folder. 574 messages in there in addition to the 1000+ messages I've received in my inbox.

What the heck is going on?
