    3. Hello ALL, Thanks everyone for their help, information and support in the Angies Site fiasco. Here is what I have done. We spent all weekend changing our passwords to absolutely everything! I have reported the Spam to my ISP, the ISP where the email originated from. Hopefully, something will put a stop to these people (person). However, I think that as soon as we start putting on the pressure, the site will start up under some other disguise. The ONLY 2 sites I used the password at that was listed in the email are: Ancestry.com, and Genealogy.com. they both swear they do not/have not sold or given away any personal information! That leaves just two possibilities. !. They have hacked into one of those two sites and stolen the information. 2. They have hacked into my computer and stolen the information. Neither prospect is very comforting. I will continue to run my Norton, with updates as often as they have them. We are planning on installing a firewall. Hopefully, this will help. I have received approximately 10 emails from people who have had the same thing happen to them! Please notify your ISP's, and forward the entire email (they need all the headers) to Email: abuse@ATTBI.COM This is Angie's site ISP. PLEASE CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS!!! Again thanks to all. I have a few emails to answer personally, and will do that this morning. Joyce A much "smarter" user near Seattle
