I got an email today from Indepundit, with whom I've never corresponded, with the "KLez Worm Immunity" (Just run it and you'll never get KLez! Trust us!) attachment. During the week, I get a couple emails with no messages, no attachments — they'd been firewalled off — and an email from a fellow I've never heard of asking about one that came in "my" name to him. Mike, at Cold Fury, has a similar story. Somebody's infected, and because so many of us correspond on a regular or irregular basis, bloggers' and readers' emails back and forth are not only more trusted than the usual run of Viagra offers, mortgage preapprovals, breast enhancements, or videos of people having sex with chickens, but also more welcome. So be careful.
If I email you, there won't be an attachment unless you ask for one — to date, two entire people have done so. And I won't send you a KLez "immunity" program to run. |
