Today I've received the same e-mail from 3 of my friends with a web link (only) in it to some "BS" supplement website. I know these people didn't send the e-mail. Anyone heard of this? Should I/they be concerned that their e-mail has been hacked?

Yes. Very likely they were either infected or hacked. At the very least, they should change their email password (as should you) and would be advised to run a thorough virus scan on their computer.

That's what I thought. Thanks!

The offer of free penis pills must have been too irresistible for them.

Yup. Must've been for penis pills.

Apparently Hotmail was hacked (or at least that is the explanation Microsoft gave).
