As far as I can tell it is some chess-related company, so likely they got my address here. I think that I post often enough that if the addresses were being harvested regularly I would be getting a lot more. Angrim ps. and if the person sending those lesecheks.com emails sees this, please remove me from your list. I delete them without reading, but it still wastes a few seconds of my connect time downloading them. thanks
