dear sir/ma`am
i am face with a peculiar problem of hacking.. since my knowledge of teh
internet is limited and our univerisity itself cannot solve it i am asking
you for help.
both my incoming mails and the mails i send are being read by soem hackers
with questionable intentions. i have no idea how it is done although i
suspect a scriptfile or soemthing of that sort.
this is totally baffling me.. how can each of my mails reach these
elements adn secondly  can they alter the contents of the mail..
i would appreciate a immediate enquiry... thanking you.

p.s my knowledge of the internet is limited.
i am suspecting abt. 5 people.... from various universities in usa and
canada.. these people i met in the IRC.

Good thinking here.

Me too!!!

Judging from the symptoms you're describing, I suspect that it's either the
CIA or the Mossad. You might complain to the President of your country,
that's the normal way. 
As for the suspected alteration: the German Secret Service makes use of the
full moon phase, when they employ moonlight driven laser beams to intercept
the email messages of law abiding citizens.

Yup.

  >canada.. these people i met in the IRC.

Been "trading", have we?  \(OvO)/

Get a life or get pgp to encrypt your mail.

Cheers,
Robin
