You now need to fix that broken "Caps Lock" key and I hope you are prepared to deal with
viruses in email. Here's why....
When you post to UseNet with your TRUE, not a munged, email address then you have invited
the
Swen Internet worm [aka; W32/Gibe-F] to visit you.
The Swen is news spelled backwards. The reason it is called this is because the Swen worm
harvests email addresses from UseNet News Groups. It has an engine that allows it to post
itself to UseNet News Groups as well as it has its own email engine. From the list of
email addresses that it has harvested, it will then email itself to those addresses.
