bookNhunts emails

Keep an eye out everyone for these "bookNhunts emails.

Got one today, and the only places I post in that are hunting related are here and gunboards, so it's a user on one or the other.

as soon as my email was downloaded, i started getting lots of attempts to open active-x applications (mine are off by default, hence the error messages) in popup windows for no obvious reason.

started deleting and checking message, as soon as i deleted that one, the active-x warning stopped. Pulled it back from trash, they started again, reported it through spamcop, and sent it off for virus/trojan checking.

Keep your eyes open, it's either someone tryign to spread something, or possibly someone who's legit, but infected themselves. or simply somsone who's really lousy with active-x commands.
Never hurts to play it safe though, especially these days.
