Supposedly they're getting away from pure DOS, but it's still possible to get there from here. Just takes a little more work than it used to. Some of the DOS commands supposedly don't work on the computers using newer versions of Word. Any truth to this?

I'm still trying to understand the problem outlined above--do you think (as sorefingers has suggested) that there is a file on your computer setting you up for surveilence or receiving this spam, or have you merely fallen into the sights of some company that is out there spamming thousands or millions with targeted email?
