Chris: You haven't the brains god gave a quack to duck. Nothing about cookies or history is related to this issue. .... (I'll call you "John Smith" here): Typically, email that goes to your contacts appearing to be from you that you did not send is a spoof.
See the link below. No one hacked your Hotmail. No virus, no Trojan, no malware, no spyware.
Let me explain this to you... Someone is pretending to be you. Those emails did not come from your account. Imagine an old-fashioned paper letter sent to someone and written on the envelope it says "from your dear friend John Smith".
Well, that's not really a letter from you. It just has your name on it, but I guarantee anyone who gets that letter and knows you will open the envelope immediately to see what "John Smith" has to say. Email that comes from "[email protected]" is going to be deleted immediately by everyone.
Email from "John [email protected]" will be opened immediately by anyone who knows you. Then half of your long list of clients and friends will realize it is fake, but half of them will be just confused enough to click the link. How did someone get your email address, and those of all your friends and clients?
Well, maybe it isn't a 100% list. You get calls from ten people in your address list and it seems like everyone got this tricky advertising email, but maybe it is less than 100%. The ones who got the email were on the group list of some chain letter email joke or "amazing story" or "support our troops" email.
These chains go out to 100 people in a group message, and then half of those send it to 100 people (now it is multiplied up to 5,000), and then half of those forward the letter to 100 each (now it is a quarter of a million!). This is the power of compounding. You can look it up right next to Warren Buffet.
Spammers who get their hands on one of these chain letters has your email address, and that of many of your friends. Now all he has to do is hope your friends like you enough to open email from you. Didn't you ever get mail that showed it was from "Emily Ponds" or whomever and you think "Who the heck is Emily Ponds?"
Well, maybe nobody, but more likely she is someone like you whose email address got picked up from a chain letter. You don't know her, just like many of the people in a chain letter don't know each other, but some do know each other, and that is like gold to the spammer! Look in your email "Sent" folder.
Do you see all these ad emails? No. Because none of them really came from your account.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
