Problems Solved
3) E-mails April
This person and I don't know who he/she is keeps sending me viruses, luckily my virus scan deletes them for me but the titles are things like, 'Looking for friendship' and 'love speaks from the heart', this person has sent me over 11 things in 3 days! They all have pervy titles and I'm 12. What if he/she knows where I live? They've found out my e-mail address so how much more do they know?
Worried Sick, April
P.S. Any advice will be welcome, or if this is happening to you come here as well. If it has happened to you, please tell me how you stopped it. Replyre:

Well does this person have a certain email address
that all these emails keep coming from? If he/she does then you should delete
the emails straight away, or you can block the email address from coming into your
inbox, most internet servers allow you to do this. But if you cannot block to
address or if he/she uses different addresses then just don't open the dodgy
subject ones. Another alternative is to keep track of your friend's email
addresses and that way you don't open emails from anyone you don't know. The
important thing, though, is to not open any emails from people you don't know,
or don't open any emails that have titles that are dodgy or titles like
"Love comes from the heart" or "Looking for friendship"
(unless of course it's from someone you know!) I hope I helped, and yes it has
happened to me before but I put a block on junk mail and on addresses that I
don't know, luckily my internet server let me do that. Do you want to be
friends? Let me know if you do, Love Tink x

Mostly these people who send out this junk have a computer that thinks up likely email addresses and sends emails to them. It doesn't know if the addresses exist or not, it just hopes to get lucky.
The best thing to do is to have two email addresses. Keep one private and only give it to friends and family and people you can trust. Use the other one for websites that ask for an email address or where you need to give an email address to join something. Then you can just check the second one occasionally, if you need to. And when you're there delete anything that you don't know who it's from.
This should help but nothing's 100% sure to stop the problem.
