Please accept my apology for "cross-posting."   I chose the newsgroups based
on where the SPAMMER had been posting today.

PROBLEM:  I have been targeted by a company selling the anti-virus product
"InVircible" and by their owner "netz@actcom.co.il"  (Zvi Netiv).

Today I received dozens of identical messages to my email box.  Each message
"warned" me that the spammer had every intention of *continuing* such email
abuse.  He and/or his company forged the headers so that *my* email address
was listed as the originating sender.  (How did he do that?)   So if I try
to "kill file" his messages, I will be putting my OWN email address in my
"kill file."   I have, of course, sent a polite note asking to be removed
from the mailing list.  My note was promptly "bounced," followed by an
increase in SPAM.

(By the way, what about the product ---- "InVircible?"   How can anyone
trust the *product* when the company owner is so unscrupulous in his
advertising?????)

Is there anything I can do to stop this harassment?   Has anyone else had
problems with this person or company?

Please post your response on this newsgroup or send an email response to
ally_mcbeal at the domain listed in the headers.  Part of the SPAM email
note is pasted below, along with the WHOIS query information.  Thank you for
your time and bandwidth.  ~~~
