[78-L] Repeat e-mails

[goldenbough at arcor.de]

I had Ronny Busse on the phone about those hundreds of emails that people got. 
He told me that the problem is now solved. 
Some hackers had initially taken over his server which is located at, and run by 
one of the largest providers in Germany (STRATO). This company took the server 
off-line, but the problem was not solved, because the hackers continued to send 
out emails from Hong Kong. 
Himself, he receivced some 7,000 emails. 
He says that he had to pay the STRATO experts 3,000 euros (4,000+ $) to finally 
have the Hong Kong server stopped, which took 2 days in all due to the time lag 
and legal problems that had to be solved internationally. During that time his 
business was completely inoperable, because the computer was off. 
For what it's worth...
