    Greetings,

    We have recently received a report of unsolicited emails originating from your Speakeasy circuit, which is in
    violation of our Acceptable Use Policy. The computer in question is at the following IP address:

    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

    A copy of the original spam is included at the bottom of this mail.

    Due to the subject and content of these unsolicited emails, we believe the computer at this IP address has been
    exploited via an open proxy. An open proxy allows anyone on the Internet to access your broadband connection,
    which enables them to mass distribute spam, eluding detection.

    This open proxy can result in the blacklisting of portions of Speakeasy's network by various organizations,
    adversely impacting the ability of other Speakeasy members to send legitimate emails.

    It is vital for the security of your personal network and the Speakeasy network as a whole that you address this
    issue immediately. If we continue to receive similar reports about your circuit, we will be forced to temporarily
    suspend your broadband service until you have had time to resolve this issue. Please understand that we consider
    an interruption in your service only when it is absolutely required to ensure both your security, and the overall
    security of the entire Speakeasy network.

    Included below is step-by-step information on how to secure your computer and network, along with How-To's on
    securing open proxies, securing formmail, general network security and wireless network security.

    PLEASE ALSO NOTE:
    There will be an open Service Ticket on your account. To ensure that your service is not interrupted, it is
    important that you update us once you have resolved this issue. Please call Speakeasy Support at 800.556.5829 or
    login to MySpeakeasy (http://www.speakeasy.net/myspeak) and update the open Service Ticket referencing this issue.

    We thank you for taking the time to address these Internet security concerns.
