Yesterday I got a message from a friend with one line:
	http://www.wpeJJJ.healthxrx.com
except that in quoting her message I replaced a single 'j' by 'JJJ'.
Like Courtney's, my friend's message bore no Subject Heading.

My friend's URL forwarded to the same Eastern-Europe-registered
"Canadian" pill pushers as the URL just pushed to us in Courtney's name.

My reply to my friend's email bounced.

She writes from an AOL address, so I inquired of AOL's postmaster and
was told that my message was bounced for citing a URL about which there
had been many complaints.

So now I know that AOL's mail filters peek into the body of incoming
email...

I think I will also surmise that my friend and Courtney were both
victims of another security fuck-up on Windoze.
