Quote - A good possibility is that some of the folks that a member might  communicate with thru the site could have a virus that has grabbed their address-book & gone crazy with it.  That's a very common source of emails for spammers these days.

 

No, if you communicate with someone through the site (e.g. sitemail or the Send Email option) you are never shown the recipient's email address, ergo it couldn't be in your address book and couldn't be intercepted by virus (that is, that's good site design on Bondware's part).
