hi

Today morning I get one offline msg saying that if i send that msg to all my
buddy list it will create another list which tell me about all my friends
screen names , details about my friends whom they are talking with .like
stuff .



He knows about all my screen names (alias, All other public profiles ID) and
said one of my contact list friend is offline, which is true..



My guess is that my system may have spam, if I send some thing to my contact
list that spam may be catching ID and text to send back to spam owner.(it
may be like residing exe at my system monitoring all activities). Is that
possible, if yes how it works (if any details). How to overcome this
problem.



Any pointers to address this problem .Please welcome.



Thanks and Regards

SPAM is an email that you didn't ask for with the intent to get you to do
something usually for commercial gain. What you likely have is a trojan or a
chunk of spyware or various other bits of malware. The following should
help:
