I have enclosed the article I received from World Start.com, explaining why we have been getting the Emails in German, and which I am still getting. Warum alle deutsche E-Mail kürzlich? I've been getting tons of email in German, have you? Turns out it's caused by the Sober.Q worm. It uses computers infected with Sober.P as a relay for emails that contain messages and links but no actual virus. Someone you know, or who has your email address in their address book or in an email, is infected and all you can do is delete them until they go away.

Not me.... all mine come in English!
