Just received an email, too!

Nope - that is the same IP that I reported in post #44.

The only difference was that the message I got was from a different forum that I belong to. IOW, that IP is using a shotgun approach with respect to forums as well as usernames.

Email about attempted log-in was snagged by my spam software and deleted.
Only the Subject line was left. Dog Days of Summer, I guess.
