Same. Very strange. For a moment there I thought I’d gone viral

Same here.
Not "hundreds" a day though in my case, more like ten or so.
Does not bother me much though as long as it does not go on forever like that (which it technically can't anyway)
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

I am getting a dozen or two false updates every day
from some threads to which I have contributed.
Malware has probably infected the forum
or the forum host servers.
Good luck, Spyderco.

These notifications- at least in my case - are not actually "false" but just too late.
After the forum update I did not get any email notificatios when I was quoted or mentioned in a thread. Now those notifications arrive kind of subsequently, which also means this will end as soon as I have received all "old ones"

@Mrj @JoviAl @Wartstein @Mad Mac

Here's some more information regarding the old email notifications: viewtopic.php?t=96531#p1781875

@Mad Mac Please don't jump to alarming conclusions without all the information. It's a serious accusation to say our forum was infected with malware.
