Re: [pygame] Re:10 hours of sex is guaranteed!



Oops, I meant gmail, not yahoo mail.  (My message to you was a slightly modified version of a message that I sent to someone else, who had the same problem, but with a yahoo mail account instead of a gmail account, and I missed a couple of the references to yahoo).  So change your gmail account password, ASAP!

Note that this problem seems to happen with all the major webmail services: yahoo, gmail, aol, and hotmail.

Dear Rob,

Your Gmail account has been hijacked!!  The bad guys have your gmail account password, and are spamming the addresses in your gmail address book: your friends, the pygame list, etc.

They might have gotten your password when you logged into your Gmail account from a computer with a "trojan" infection.  So I recommend that you immediately log into your gmail account from a trusted computer (a computer that you are confident has no trojan infection), and change your yahoo account password.

Then, I recommend that you scan whatever computer(s) you use for yahoo mail with some good anti-malware tools, including, at least:

I have links to good anti-malware tools on my web site:
