This sounds strange, but someone with the email address datavirus627@hotmail.com sent me two emails with a bunch of .BAS files and asked me in broken english to fix them. Whoever it is they are German.

Does anyone know who this is?
Hmm...broken english...

Is there anyone you helped who used severe broken english on either this forum or another one(such as Pete's or the FreeBASIC forums)? I don't know anyone who has the email datavirus(I never look at emails on forums outside the osFree project anyway), so I can't help you any further.
If it was me, I'd have used broken Klingon.
Nope, no idea.

i'm just asking something..but it might be true..

is it possible that someone can open my Id in this forum and post messages as me? Confusedhifty:
Well, you can, so yes, it is possible for someone else to.

It's a little harder if they don't know your password.
