Oh dear. I've just had my first ever experience of how some sites/undetected virus can cause huge embarrassment. I've been happily scribbling away on my pc, whilst - as I now discover - some bizarre website, which appears to be a commercial operation (and whose name I will not reveal) has somehow attacked my computer, got into my address book and sent out invitations to 'join me' and register with the site so 'we can keep track of each other's movements'.
I'm hoping some of the emails will have been blocked as spam, but I already know of many which haven't and which have landed in the inboxes of people I barely know, apparently coming from me.
I've contacted the company concerned, but if I hear back from them I'll eat my proverbial hat.
Bloody computers!
