SpamNet coincidence? Anyone else?

I don't receive a lot of spam, but when I recently upgraded my Zone
Alarm firewall I took advantage of SpamNet's offer of one free year
thinking I'd give it a try.

It is very rare that I receive emails with viruses, but I received
*two today* after installing and activating SpamNet with my email
address. Norton Antivirus detected the viruses and SpamNet detected
the spam, so I was OK.

I understand this may be a coincidence, but it is very suspicious that
I suddenly get *two* infected emails today after activating SpamNet,
since this such a departure from my previous experience.

Anyone else?

do you post many messages using your real email address? Google shows you
do... and that will result in both spam and viruses...
