Strange spam situation.

Starting a few days ago, I've been getting spammed a couple times a day. The weird thing is the "To:" field always reads something different (none of them being my e-mail address). Here are the ones I've gotten so far:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
Only thing I can see is that most start with an 'm', same as my e-mail address. What's the story on this?

An email will be sent to any address listed in the To, Cc, and Bcc fields; the Bcc field is only visible to the sender, and is often used by spam and opt-in newsletters.

  • Strange Facetime situation

    Hello everyone.
    So my gf bought her factory unlocked iphone 4, and we have been trying out facetime quite alot lately. And we noticed a strange situation and it seems very consistent.
    Whenever I call her FaceTime from my MBP Pro (Beta version of facetime), I ALWAYS have to call her twice to get the video thru. The first time I called, we can only get voice, and I have to immediately hang up and call back to get the video part. Vice and versa.
    Does any of you have this problem?
    What gives?
    Thanks
    iphone 4, iOS 4.3.3

    I'm not, but the FaceTime beta for the Mac is obsolete. Why beat your head against the wall troubleshooting it when it may be fixed in the current version?

  • Strange firmware situation

    I checked the apple article that explains the latest firmware updates for intel macs.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303880
    What is strange is that mine should look like this...
    MacBook Pro (Core 2 Duo 15-inch) MBP22.00A5.B00 1.12f5
    My SMC version is correct (1.12f5) but instead of the boot ROM version for the 15 inch, it actually has the boot ROM version of a MPB C2D 17-inch (MBP21.00A5.B01).
    I am not having any issues. However, I wonder if it could cause problems in the future.

    I have the same thing on my MBP 15"...

  • Strange foreclosure situation

    I'm in a strange position.  In 2009 I went through a foreclosure.   Long story short, a few years later that foreclosure was found to be part of the wrongful foreclosures by several banks and was part of the federal settlement.  One of the terms of the settlement was that the foreclosure and any negative reporting regarding the foreclosure would be removed from the credit reports of affected individuals, which it has been.  There is no record of the foreclosure in any of my credit reports.  In fact, there is no record of any mortgage at all in any of my credit reports.  The thing is, I am not in the process of becoming a licensed mortgage banker, and part of the licensing is to disclose certain financial information.  I responded yes to the question "have you had foreclosure action brought against you in the past 10 years?"  However, now I am wondering if I am answering this question correctly.  With it wiped from my credit report, is it still considered to have happened?  Do I need to disclose it?  I have also heard from others that they are unable to get new mortgages without their credit reports accurately reflecting the foreclosure.  Sounds crazy!

    This is an ethical question related to your future employment. Yes, the foreclosures were wrongful. But in a literal sense, it is true that a "foreclosure action" was brought against you--even if it was a wrongful one. The most straight-forward thing to do seems to be to disclose the foreclosure but mention that it was invalidated. Cite the case.

  • Strange font situation in Keynote

    I just upgraded to Yosemite and the latest version of keynote. I opened a presentation I previously created in the last version of Keynote and a weird thing is happening with fonts not appearing correctly. I attached 2 screenshots to illustrate what's happening, I drew red circles on the one to show where its happening, the other is pretty apparent.

    Seems to have something to do with the Character Styles, getting the same thing there.

  • Wallstreet strange battery situation

    Having a problem with a battery with wallstreet. Was supposed to work in another wallstreet, but cannot verify. Inserted battery into 10.2.8 and read 86% and charging. Charged to 100% and had 4 lit LED lights. Unplugged the AC and worked off battery for about 10 minutes and then complete shutdown. Connected AC and rebooted, battery at 96% and charging and charged to 100%. Once again removed AC and lasted about 2 minutes and then complete shutdown. Rebooted and now battery shows 100% all the time and if I remove the AC, it goes to immediate shutdown. Boot into 9.2.1 and run the battery reset v2. It goes straight into the reset without asking to reboot. It says the battery is reset. I remove the battery, wait a few minutes, and reinsert the battery. I have a battery icon with white on the top third, blue on the last two third, and a red line with arrow on the bottom. No lightning bolt for recharging, after about 3 minutes it goes to a solid red battery. And now the test button only shows one blinking LED light. Reset PRAM and Power Unit does not do any good. Any suggestions?

    Jean,
    Your internal rechargeable backup battery will not cause this behavior. Your symptoms are typical of a dying lithium ion battery. There are two important measurements with batteries...volts and amperes. The Jeremey CSM is measuring volts but not amperes; it also will not measure watts if selected.
    On my 800MHz iBook running OSX, I installed a utility called 'coconutBattery' and it measures mAh (milliamperehours). When new, my iBook battery had a 4000 mAh capacity, but is now down to 1842 mAh with a corresponding drop in runtime. However, the battery still charges to a full 16.4 volts. Your battery still charges to 15 volts but it no longer has any capacity (mAh) left. Also, a new battery will probably charge to 16.5 volts, at least the replacement I bought for my Wallstreet does. I think you can be safe in replacing the battery
    By the way, I don't know of any utility that measures battery amperes in OS 9.x.

  • Strange applet situation

    I have an applet (code below) that was compiled like so:
    javac -target 1.1 DigiClock.java
    that class is then used in the applet tag.
    My machine has the 1.3 plugin, but no others do. I am the only one that can see the applet. Everyone else gets a grey box with no errors.
    None of the code, as far as I can tell is beyond 1.1.
    Any thoughts?

    Are 'others' running it from a webserver somewhere or off local filesystem? If running from local filesystem you will get an AccessControlException when reading the image.

  • Strange flicker situation

    Hello All
    I have used stll video images before and I have used the flicker filter to get rid of the video flicker or jitter that you get with still images.
    But I have this flicker problem I can't get rid of. I added a couple of matte shot to the timeline. So the first video track was a full screen black and white image. The second track was a still of a person that I cut out with a matte filter (Tom's 50 point matte which is really excellent by the way). To that matte shot I added a drop shadow. So the still matte image is fine, but it's the drop shadow that flickers. I have tried every thing but can't seem to get rid of it.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Mike

    Hello Al,
    Yes, I have tried that filter.

    In some versions of Oracle (certainly all of the 8.x versions and earlier, and possibly some of the earlier 9 versions) the SQL parsers in the SQL engine and in the PL/SQL engine were different. Some features that worked directly in SQL did not work in PL/SQL. Scalar sub-queries were one of those things.
    You have three options. You can try to re-write the insert statement to eliminate the PL/SQL unimplemented feature. You can create a view in the database for the SELECT part of the insert statement then use that view in the insert. finally, and least desirable, you can build the whole statment as a string, and use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE to run it in PL/SQL.

  • Upside down video

    Hello,
    i generate a DVD with Adobe Encore. everything was ok until watching the video. In fact, the video were upsidedown ?!?
    I think i forget to do something or the automatic encoding is not the right choice ... my origin video is .avi.
    Thank you to help me on this strange turnaround situation.
    Melanie

    Melanie,
    As Jeff suggests, DivX (and Xvid) can cause this sort of problem. The file extension "AVI" is just a wrapper. All sorts of CODECs might be used in its creation. A freeware program, G-Spot, can tell you all about the file and also what CODECs are used, plus whether you have them properly installed on your system: www.headbands.com/gspot.
    Let us know what it tells you about your AVI file, please.

  • Sql_id in gv$sort_usage vs gv$session

    I've caught a strange(?) situation here.
    select sql_id from gv$sort_usage where session_addr='000000046A1932F0'; -- gives me 5bqt08ckavskx
    where as
    select sql_id from gv$session where saddr='000000046A1932F0'; -- gives me 1rztpy7a92vpn
    Because of this, I am not able to find the correct query which is consuming lots of temp segments. Well, actually, I am catching up those queries when things are apparent but I am now caught in a situation where two queries are somewhat similar and getting me confused. Why gv$sort_usage and gv$session are giving me different queries and which query is the one that is actually taking the huge temp segments?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Readdle docs different in iTunes 10

    Before the latest iTunes upgrade, or iPad upgrade to 6 I could use Readdle docs in the application section of iTunes to "add" documents to the iPad from the PC.  With the new iTunes there doesn't seem to be this function.  I use this all the time as I move documents from the PC to the iPad all the time and just want to get back the spams situation as I had before.  I have tried doing a network connection but it doesn't work and as I have a crap Internet connection I find the direct sync system the best.  Can anyone help?

  • ITS don't care template

    Hi experts,
    I have developed my web application based on dynpro. It works fine, but I need to change the the dynpro template.
    So I generate my dynpro template, I change it and after I publish the template, but in the browser I see the transaction without my changes (I see it like a start without template).
    I have created a mixed mode internet service. It seems that don't care the template. Why?
    Any suggs? I'll reward points of course...
    rgs

    Hi Edgar,
    the service file contains
    ~CLIENT     200
    ~POPUPS     1
    ~TRANSACTION     ZMYTRANS
    ~GENERATEDYNPRO     1
    ~WEBTRANSACTIONTYPE     EWT
    Now for the first dynpro works only with template but the other dynpros are not loaded with template.
    If I try to publish in local the service, it generates two folder service with the service file and another one called
    templates/myservice/99/(here my templates)
    If I would write the source command in the service file, what the value for it?
    So strange this situation...

  • Cannot email anything to my own address

    This probably sounds like an odd title, but when I am away I write a lot of notes and then email them to my own email address as a backup. I also tend to BCC emails I send to other people for the same reason.
    My problem is that none of these emails ever arrive at my email address. I can send emails to, and recaive them from, any other email address with no problems, but anything I email to my own address from my iPhone never arrives, despite there being no problem with anyone else emailing me at that address.
    I have checked all my spam filters, etc, on my email account, and all seem fine.
    I hope someone can help, it's driving me nuts! I'm using an iPhone 3GS, OS 3.0 and my email provider is BT / Yahoo.

    it could be happening on the yahoo side... login to your bt yahoo mail via the website (www.bt.yahoo.com) and then choose Options -> Mail Options then Spam and make sure your email address is not on the list of Blocked Email Addresses (might have been added due to a previous mail attack or spam situation)
    when you check the settings for the account on the iphone (Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Select the account your having problems with) what does it list as the Outgoing (SMTP) mail server?
    be well
