Somebody used my email from this site (Ihave several) and signed me up for Hobbyhuren . Ibelieve that is correct. If Iwas single maybe interested. I think I know what it means but somebody help me out.
Did I piss in somebodies wheaties or something?

I had the same thing happen through hotmail a while back. They even managed to add porn sights to my desktop and I don't even visit those sights. I guess it's someone out there without any kinda life.

Some address dealers will scan the internet (read: web pages) for email addresses ... doesn't necessarily have to be somebody trying to do something against you ...
I need to check how this can be turned off - the feature from the profile doesn't seem to work (changed all the users to not show it anymore, but they are still visible  )

even more funny: I get those.
Good: I don't have a wife to explain... Bad: got a 7 year-old daughter sometimes watching (checking her email) so I have to make sure to log on and delete that stuff first.
as Garry said, all by machine otherwise they would send me guy's
not girls pics.

If you pay to have something spammed to 1,000,000 people, usually at least 1-2% of those people will respond or sign up. At that rate, you are getting like 1000-2000 people, so you are doing quite well.. There are places that charge you like $30 to spam.. I hate spam with a passion. Every day I have to delete ~200 and the spam function does NOT WORK.

What mail program are you using? Mozilla's anti spam filter works pretty well, once you train it for a couple days and a couple hundred spam mails ...
