RE: Robot from Hell

["Ken R. Walkup" <krw25@cornell.edu>]

Hi Bob,
I had this happen to me--I found a software that I think might be worth your while to download.  Trend Micro RUBotted.  If you have no problem, you'll never notice it.  If you do, it's very, very insistent that you do something about it.  It's free.
Ken

Dear AIS Discuss; I had my e-mail suspended three days ago when a robot took it over and was sending out thousands of messages. I knew about it because I was getting thousands of Mail delivery failures to addresses I had not sent to. Many messages to me are embedded in this huge mass of e-mails that I have to delete. iI make take several days before I can sort out all of these. It was fixed temporarily 2 days ago and I sent an e-mail about the Encyclopedia but almost immediately I was back in trouble. I am hoping it is now fixed, and not just another pause. Give me a few days to get this straightened out.

Robert,

I have thousands of scanned slides waiting your instructions!
Several emails to you have gone unanswered.

Back to scanning,
