today i received e-mail viruses not just for myself, but also for Mary, Adam and Robert (all @simianuprising.com). These people and adresses do not exist.
Whoever’s idea it was to make the virus randomly generate likely adresses for every domain name is just plain mean.

macs don't get virii, eat it.

also, if you are interested in my rambling thoughts concerning the commnications theory of digital media you may or may not want to check out my class blog for intro to digital media. WARNING: IT IS DRY AND DISTINCTLY LACKING IN EXCITEMENT.

I’ve been getting a lot of those nasty random name emails at bentcomics. it’s seriously ridiculous. it’s an epidermic!

I guess the only solution is to start having usernames like dgsKDghjlkwej52352 that you would never yourself ever remember.

Same here!
I am glad i am not the only one (sorry, it’s better if every body is being annoyed and not just me). People like Fred and Jose don’t even exist!
