Yeah, I think somebody did a run on AOL accounts because I've been getting emails from my wife's super old aol account from the same people.

When I was a teen I used to hack AOL accounts all day long and used them to spam porn (there was no viagara back then). I was pretty awesome. I like to think of myself a pioneer in AOL porn spamming methods/techniques. Before me nobody asked you to "view their webcam". My recommendation: don't use AOL.

I don't actually do this, but I would recommend you use different PW for your email vs everything else. Can always reset PWs through your email address...

If the problem's with an AOL account, check to see if the "away" message has been maliciously activated. It's possible that the away message is redirecting to an autospam site, so that everyone who e-mails the account gets a spam bounceback.
