經(jīng)常會(huì)看到有人的MSN簽名是“郵箱中毒,郵件非本人發(fā)送”這樣的信息。中毒真的是件很讓人郁悶的事情,不過,如果這個(gè)病毒發(fā)送的垃圾郵件能讓你重新與一些久未聯(lián)系的朋友開始聯(lián)絡(luò),這大概也算是件好事吧。
Malware reunion describes the situation when a computer virus or other malware sends junk mail to recipients on your contact list and that results in a correspondence between you and someone on your contact list with whom you have not communicated in a long time. In this sense, the malware does do a good thing by unintentionally leading to this reunion. (Source: urbandictionary.com)
Malware reunion說的是這樣一個(gè)情景:你電腦中的某個(gè)病毒或惡意程序向你郵箱的聯(lián)系人發(fā)送垃圾郵件,而這個(gè)垃圾郵件使得你跟好久沒有聯(lián)系的某個(gè)人又開始通信聯(lián)系。我們可以稱之為“因病毒重聚”。在這種情況下,惡意程序因?yàn)闊o(wú)意中促成了一次重聚,反而做了件好事。
For example:
比如以下這兩封郵件:
Email 1: Mike? It's me Sheila from law school - long time no speak! I think you have a virus on your computer because I'm getting spam from you. Anyways - how is life going - where are you working?
電郵1:邁克?我是你法學(xué)院的同學(xué)希拉,好久沒聯(lián)系了!我覺得你電腦可能中病毒了,因?yàn)槲沂盏搅四惆l(fā)來的垃圾郵件。不過,你過得怎么樣?現(xiàn)在在哪里工作?
Email 2: Hi Sheila - good to hear from you and sorry about the spam - what a nice malware reunion! I started my own practice a year ago. Where are you working?
電郵2:你好,希拉!很高興收到你的信,很抱歉讓你被垃圾郵件騷擾。這可真是因病毒重聚??!我一年前開始自己執(zhí)業(yè)了。你在哪里上班呢?
