It is a spam/scam message, did not come from me.   And it is not my 
contacts list being hacked, because I dont have one.  All of ny 
contact information is in a separate text file that has no connection 
to the internet or to my email client software.

There has been a rash of this type of spam  e-mails on the internet 
in the last couple of weeks with a web link or attachment, looking 
like it came from a friend when it didn't.  This appears to me like 
the spammer is copying a legitimate email message, then sending a 
spam message to the same recipient while using the original sender's 
name and address in the From line. It commonly says something 
mysterious like, "This is in follow-up to our prior conversation", 
and "Click here".  If you don't understand it, dont click.  Contact 
your frield to see if it really came from him.

</font>Hi!<br>
This is regarding our last dialogue. I've prepared a new presentation -
you<br>
can check it for errors.<br>

Didn't get the original of this (which happens from time to time) but
seat<br>
belts can have two methods of locking.&nbsp; One is when the car tilts
or<br>
decelerates more than a certain amount, the other is if the belt is
yanked<br>
out of the reel fast enough, and not all belts have both.<br>
