Yes, I got several e-mails. It is too late. I thought it was a notification of a PM from a member and clicked on it! Soo stupid of me! Now I am worried! But, my computer is still acting fine! I deleted all the e-mails.

According to Marshal there is no need to worry about a virus from the email.

Sigh, I couldn't get into this site so I didn't know that this was a spoofer and had clicked on the link in my email. Probaly the same doofus that highjacked my website domain..I'm getting spam mail that says it comes from me and I never sent it out and all my users on my domain are having the same prob.

Thank you very much Marshall for fixing this!

Is it the email address you registered with? That's why... they hacked into the database and got everyone's.


Yes, they did hack into the site and used the admin panel to send a mass e-mail. At least, that's my understanding.

Since this email went out i have had someone trying to break into my computer several times. My firewall keeps the person out. I wonder if this is all linked together in some way.

Of course, not everyone got that piece of e-mail. Even if they did, it's filtered to a Bulk/Junk mail folder.

The address is the same one that sends you a message when you lose your password and need a new one.
