Well, after i started getting on the internet at work for some reason everyone started getting pornographic emails, now all i get on at work is this board, imdb.com and a few car sites so im not sure how we would recieve this stuff but i know my old computer at home did this too. i know for sure im the only who gets on the internet cause no else can figure out how to get passed our work startup page. Can someone tell me how this happens? Kind of annoys me that your email address can be magical found just surfing the net

umm spyware sneaking in?
really all they need is a IP addy and if you know what your doing you can do about anything you want, if you use outlook it wouldn't be that hard for them to capture all the addys you use, and then start spaming them.

you network is mosy like connected to the Firewall, and when you sneak out you are leaving a open port to the network
