Find your email option that allows you to block certain senders or see if there is an opt out link in their spam. What email software do you use?

Sounds like a possible virus is in your email. Not familiar with Entourage - maybe you can go to them for help. Try running malwarebytes (you can download for free) and see what you pick up.

Good luck -

I don't think its a virus, just a bad company that uses your email address to get around spam blockers.

Don't know why firms do this, I would never buy from a spammer.

No 'puter maven here, but I think your computer may be "Bot-ized", and
your computer is being used to send out spam.
