Last week I installed the latest version of Flash and Java. I was having problems with my comcast home page and was instructed by comcast to do so.

I can't say that the updating of these 2 products is causing my problem but ever since I did it, I have been getting some very strange emails.

I use a 3rd party email client called Incredimail Pro. It has an option that states any message received whereby the address is not in the "Address Book", can be automatically transfered to another folder called the "Junk Folder".

Many messages that appear in the Junk Folder have an icon next to them. This icon is a silhouette of a man from the shoulders up wearing a hat. The icon is totally black in color. The subject is usually garbage characters that don't spell anything.

I delete these immediately but why all of a sudden am I getting them? Is there any setting in ZA Pro or Nod 32 that I should try?

Well i have never had a good feeling about Incredimail as you know, but I cannot see how a java update and flash would have added these new characters.

I use incredimail and haven't had any problems Sam. BUT I also have noticed a drastic drop in my emails!

I usually get 50 - 60 junk emails a day and since the weekend I only have gotten a handful.

Maybe you are getting MY junk email :eek:
