What is it with Yahoo! Mail and their spam filters? I didn't check my mail for 8 hours and my mailbox filled to 110% capacity with spam! And this stuff was in my inbox!

Luckily, the astute me realized that if Masamichi had replied with a total for those two pairs of Antique Rose eyes, it would have gotten bounced. So I mailed him and he answered right away--turns out his invoice *had* gotten bounced.

Speaking of spam, we got a warning last night from our ISP that "they have reason to believe we may be infected with the Blaster worm". They say that our computers have been generating a lot of traffic, which can be a sign of infection, and if we don't fix it they may temporarily halt our service. The thing is, my computer has Windows Me as an operating system. The one downstairs has Windows 98. Neither can be infected with the Blaster worm. On the Microsoft Windows Update page, they state specifically that these operating systems aren't affected.

I wonder if it's because nobody sleeps in this house. There is somebody logged onto the Internet 24/7 every single day(not me!) I don't even know when my older brother goes to bed. And the warning message said they have no way of telling which of our computers is the one generating the traffic.

I know for a fact that downstairs, they leave the computer logged on even when they're not down there. I should tell them to cut it out, but they never listen.... -_-;;;; I haven't gotten another warning message, but if I do, I guess we'll have to call somebody to make them leave us alone.

How weird your yahoo inbox is getting spammed so much! I have a hotmail one that got spammed sooo much I closed it to the address book only. My yahoo one...the spam filter catches the stuff pretty good. If it gets really bad, you might wanna consider opening another email account, just to use for stuff like emailing Masamichi.

As for the blaster email worm, I'm running on Win98 at home. How odd that your ISP thinks your computers are infected. You've run virus scans on them? I never got the worm, thankfully.

I've run Virus Scan on my own computer and it's clear. As for the one downstairs, I'm not supposed to touch it, and I'm having a hard time convincing the males in my family that it's important, but they have Windows 98, which is supposed to not be able to get Blaster worm.

You are really an Antique Rose addict now, eh?

^^;;;;;;; Well, it's nice to have a more reliable eye source than Volks! Especially since Volks discontinued so many of their eye colors.
