Status: offline 		I have just received my third email from pressrelease@matrix.com Is this the result of a worm or a virus on the email server? [ January 21, 2002: Message edited by: swagman ] [ January 21, 2002: Message edited by: swagman ] [ January 21, 2002: Message edited by: swagman ]

But one was abt La Grand Armee and another about the science fictional title, so only one mail seems having been doubled so far.

I think he meant a worm on the Matrix server, not in the email itself. I got them too. I heard it was just Paul; to many hours at work and he fell asleep . His nose hit the ENTER key and his PC just kept on mailing. Tommy

Status: offline 		Thanks for the replies...the multiple memberships is a likely solution...as is Paul's nose (I am sure it is a beautiful thing). I just wanted to let the Matrix guys know...in case it was something nastier.

Status: offline 		Fellas: Clean out those old, useless cookies and a lot of the junk and excess stuff you get will be a thing of the past. I use Cookie Pal and recommend it for cookie management. It will not, so far as I know, detect spyware. For that, Ad-Aware is excellent: Twice in the last couple of months I've had spyware installed and without Ad-Aware it would still be there - in the registry no less. Bing
