I have been getting emails in Outlook Express where the subject reads like a news headline. The first one I noticed stated that the Pope had been killed in the Vatican. This one really upset me until I remembered he was in Australia at the time. The contents of the email is just a strange string of words and a link to a website. Are these emails trying to spread a virus or are they just trying to sell me viagra?

Most likely they are trying to get you to the site to either sell you something, or give you a virus, so, yes, you're pretty much right on with that. Just delete the emails, and dont even give them a second thought.

Thank you. I wanted to see if anyone knew any more about them, and maybe warn others in the process.
