Hi Janet and all....I am ready to scream bloody murder. I don't do a whole lot of emails and ones I do are pretty regular. Sometime ago I got an email from one telling me I could check who had me blocked----I didn't pay any attention as it was on MSN hotmail and I rarely use that. I use OE for mostly all my mail and I DO NOT SPAM!!!!

    The above is what I keep getting. I have scanned, cleared out with c cleaner, spybot and usual stuff form ISP that is right on system. I have replied to sender,who is my ISP; no response, I decided to go and do a System Restore.....seems that didn't do any good either. So I am sending much stuff from GMAIL now.

   I removed the rec. address for obvious reasons here, I did not reply to that stupid email that day. This is infuriating as I know a lady who sends garbage all the time and she still sends crap out.......yes I did ask all the contacts and no one has me blocked.  Any idea how this is happening? I have tried not to, but guess I will have to call ISP and physically speak with someone there.  I like using OE always have used it as main mail addy. I am admin here, although I have not really used it for much.......can anything be done that way?  Very frustrating

Any help is appreciated, thanks. Before I blow my stack at someone...lol

Thanks

Oct 12...update turns out HOTMAIL is sending info at my ISP into a tailspin and everything is screwed up. I am not blocked by anyone and will just have to wait it out. Young man I spoke with seemed quite frazzled, I imagine he had been nswering same question over and over lol. I don't know if its just here or what but its screwing things up pretty good. I am STILL glad I didn't answer that email about wanting to know if I was blocked.....might have done something a lot worse to my computer. I still have other email addys to use.SO thank-you but it seems this is a company glitch......not mine   lol lol

I guess I wouldn't even have opened it or like you I wouldn't have payed any attention if an email told me someone had blocked me......I would have said big deal and deleted it.....

I may have gotten things like this too but never opened them so I couldn't tell you what was in them.......I would just keep deleting that stuff and see if it stops otherwise I don't have an answer for you.... probably you shouldn't have even opened it because it sounds like a spammer of some kind. Anything you do to try and get rid of it could just get you more grief......

Don't open and always delete anything like that from now on and maybe it will ease.....other than that I am not sure what to do....

 

It is nice being right-once in a while.
