If you look at the email headers carefully, you will see that I never actua=
lly=20
sent them.  They came from a virus-infested windows box, infected by the=20
kay-ell-ee-zee virus (I don't want to spell it because a spam filter will k=
ill
this email). =20

If you read about thsi virus on the net, you will see that it sends out
email using bogus "from" addresses that were taken from the infested comput=
er's=20
address book.  Basically, some windows shmmuck has my email in thier addres=
s book,
and thier box got infected.  =20

Hey, I feel I'm in good company ... I get virus infested emails from=20
Alan Cox regularly :-)=20
