Dear user of drsolly.com,
Your account has been used to send a large amount of spam during the recent week.
Obviously, your computer was infected by a recent virus and now contains a trojaned proxy server.
Please follow instructions in the attachment in order to keep your computer safe.
Best regards,
The drsolly.com support team.
Actually, I run drsolly.com, and I am the drsolly.com support team. Also I'm the only user.
I get quite a lot of spam like this; they're trying to get me to run the enclosed trojan, which (I'd guess) would make me part of a botnet, although I'd also guess that this would only work if I were running Windows, which I'm not.
I also get "Wouldn't it be great if you had a PhD" spam. Well, I find it funny.
