If you can tell me any logical connection between header faking and detering
stalkers... but well, you can't, since there is none.

Obviously "Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.3138" is not a random string,
especially not if it's repeated among two postings.

"5-cfpsl4io7roUHp4FlfX4evXS4RHA6wudmVnB-qKISihnjUHFIUBz1Pn5MGX5FC" would be one.
