Man, someone hacked into my old AOL account and somehow sent out an email to about 3 dozen people, including my wife, and some family members who are not so open minded about things, my employer (not a big deal-I can delete those).  It was totally a hacked email and who ever got it will know it was a hacked email, but a few of them are clearly something I'd be into as far as people/organizations I might email.  Of course, one of the email addresses appearing on the email list for all those receiving the email  to see was an email addie associated with this site, and with a few other kinky related websites.... from like years ago... fuck!  

if she's against it this might work?

tell your wife you searched "sex" and founf the site and you wer surfing the net in the early days.

And more importantly fuck Time Warner

My aol account was hacked earlier this year. My entire contact list was sent a link to god knows what. Don't sweat it. You were hacked and the contents of any emails are not your responsibility. You have nothing to explain except your account was hacked.

it cost me more.  I used to need an entire team of CPAs before Levin screwed the pooch.  Now, not so many.

Especially since your AOL mail account was likely hacked years ago.  An AOL mail exploit was widely distributed on the net that basically told everyone how to access root level mail accounts.  AOL's first few fixes were laughable.  Yours  and a few million other AOL users mail accounts have made their way to a small village in Turgistan.  You don't say what the content of the email is, but if it was hobby or sex related, or from a former Ethiopian prince who wants to send the recipient 250 million dollars just for their bank info, you're probably OK as that is a legitimate hack.   But if it was something more personal to you, like "Hi, I'm (your full name and screening info), want to meet?"  sent to 20 or 30 hookers,  then you may have a more complicated issue.

and have multiple AOL addy's.. One for here one is primary... I have so much tied to my AOL primary address it'd be too much if hassle to change.. I have seen yahoo and all the others get hacked over time.. Strong really whacky passwords is the best defense.

I've been hacked there three times in the last two years despite increasing my password to over 8 digits with caps, numbers, and letters.

I ought to just bite the bullet and go to hushmail and be done with it.

The hacking was just plain old commercial BS making it look like I was shilling for some product, so no one was harmed, just inconvenienced.

and it was no big deal..

delete all the addresses one by one, then close the account.  I've had my Yahoo accounts hacked & spoofed repeatedly.  Probably NSA screwing around!  I'd like to get my own dedicated domain just for email.

I thought this email account was clean of the hobby... I deleted everything in it and the contacts and everything.  I'd moved on to gmail some time ago and  I just used aol for instances where I knew I'd get spammed.
