And it looks like that's what happened here, from what I can determine.

The two posts from Duane, that I found, was sendt from "***.dsl.mindspring.com"
while the spam was sendt from "88.253.250.161" (.ttnet.net.tr - Turkey) via the same SMTP server, using Earthlinks webmail. (According to headers.)
So it appears that Duane doesn't have a compromised system after all, as Florian suggested.

Oh well.
Like they say, shit happens to good people too. :-)=
