[SpamCop-List] Re: Mysterious "spam"

[B.G.]

Looks like something got 'planted' on your system and it autoruns.  And
you're getting an 'ad check' from Doubleclick .. as in the cookie they
planted on your computer may be phoning home.  Do you have a firewall??  If
not, I suggest you get one IMMEDIATELY ... and Zone Alarm is about the best
one going .. and it's free!   Go to:  http://www.zonelabs.com and download
the free version .. it's for 'personal' use.

On your Zone Alarm, when this 'autorun' site comes back up, you'll be asked
if you want it to access the internet.  Say NO!!  And then you can go to
your 'programs' tab and permanently tell ZA not to allow it access to your
computer.

Also, download a freebie called Ad-Aware.  It cleans your registry and all
files of ad/spyware software that 'phones home.'  It's free, too, and can be
found at:  www.lavasoftusa.com/  .. right now, the site is down for
maintenance, but catch it when it comes back up!

The dlode site is a marketing 'pitch' for the exact automated system you're
getting.  Feel free to LART them at:
