Daily email from Yahoo answers, saying ? has asked you a question......?

Every day, I have like 4 or 5 emails from Yahoo answers saying "? has asked you a question on Yahoo answers, do you know the answer?"

Has anyone else got this email or is it just me being paranoid, because I keep thinking its a virus.

    If you did not RESET your profiles options, this is because the default seems to be that they will automatically email notices whenever your contacts ask questions.

    You can change that -- just go to your profile (click your avatar, name or "My Profile" link), click "Edit My Info" there and scroll down to change that option.

    you probable made it to point 2 (which demands 250 to 999 factors) yet then asked some questions, lost some factors then fell lower back to point a million. that's all on the subject of the factors. in case you're making it to a a procedures better point then ask questions, you lose 5 factors according to question and might drop right down to the decrease point. do not forget to choose for a "suitable answer" for each question you ask because of the fact you get 3 factors lower back for choosing the "suitable answer" and forfeit those factors if it is going into balloting.
