Well, that is strange indeed. When I trace IP origins I seem to be getting results that point to Sidell, La. :D

Seriously though, If there was a program that could identify the true origin of a person who compromises accounts, uses your email address to post spam, I would be happy. To date this is the third time I changed my credentials and started all over asgain with new name and emails because of that.
