    Re: Hotmail

    It's either 'cos of:

    a) You've gave it out to a dubious site (registering for membership of summinck, or porn ;) )

    b) A spider's grabbed it from your profile page on this message board (canny unlikely)

    c) Spammers use nifty little programs that either force addresses or use common names/things to build addresses to use as a spoofed "sender" or to 'guess' recipients. Your e-mail address consists of two common names (your surname is a common first name in the US) plus the @hotmail.com means this is quite likely.

    Ditch hotmail anyway, as it is pure :evil: shite. Yahoo is much better - use the .co.uk one.
