skit, there are some worms and viruses that go through people's computers and send random messages like that ... so that person may not even know that message was sent from him or her to you. Moreover, that messge may not even be from him or her ... just disguised to look like that. I have gotten plenty of messages like that (most including virus attachments) from old friends, people that I didn't even remember, and friends of friends that I never met! Just recently I got a message from an Armenian guy that had a virus. I emailed him back telling him that his computer may be infected ... well, it turned out that the message didn't come from him but from someone we both know! These viruses are creating new ways of social contact! You discover people in places you never knew were so closely related to you ... or maybe that sevag guy had a big crush on you, put your email in his address book, but never got the courage to say something!!!! ... and now he has a virus
