 Last week a contact with a strange email address
 (0ver1cr5gb08m0ncz23o8os96f at public.talk.google.com) showed up on my
 Buddy List. I recognize the nickname but I didn't add this person nor have
 I emailed them in over a year. I removed the contact from my Buddy List
 and the next day it showed up again. It continues to behave that way.

 Why does that happen? Why should I not be able to control who shows up on
 my Buddy list?

 Please help. It's very annoying.
