Default Spam?




I am now getting key words underlined & linked to spam like 'car', 'vehicle', even 'web address' in regular messages on this list.

Is this a legitimate part of the list now Model A Lady, or has the site been attacked?

Are you referring to receiving emails or posts on the website?

No, ON THIS LIST. In fact the message I sent [as below], when viewed has a line under those words & will light up & show a link. I am not getting this anywhere else and I have never seen it before.



'Cars' & 'vehicles' comes up with 'Cars Direct' & 'website' is linked to 'Value webb'

When my cursor sits on the link, the words 'Top Text Link' appears at the bottom of my screen. Further info says 'available in the U.S only'.

I checked a few more messages/trails and they are not very common. I clicked on one & no page was available but the next one sent a wave of windows which I had trouble shutting down, My Norton is doing it's thing right now in case....my 'Ad Aware' is working too...

Try sending those words in a test message of your own...?
