Out of the blue the limited people on my list were getting hit with fried requests. No photo, the age was the date and an entirely different year.

Changed all the passwords, dumped a couple of those Hi ya messages I found lurking. Made numerous reports to Facebook, they are idiots. Run all my malware, checkers, webroot, spybot, etc. no sign of any infection.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
