Re: strange log on username appearing

Well this is a strange one. Every now and then when i go to log
onto something (ie groups) when I hit a certain letter a username
that is meaningless comes up for me (ie "username@xxxxxxxxxx").
Since I live alone there is NO chance that someone used it and my
computer remembered it. Furthermore I delete all filed and
passwords cached, now & then. What is even stranger is the domain
name contained in the address DOESN'T EXIST according to godaddy or
internic.

Thoughts? Ideas as to what this is about?

Did you also install this system from scratch using a non-modified Windows
CD so - just like in a good recipe - you know everything that was there from
the beginning and not just pouring the ingredients from a can? heh
