Think you might be wrong there, these are scam emails ment to clog email servers. Check the Sophos site to see for validity of these; there usualy just rubbish emails. The Olympic torch one is for sure, anything asking you to 'forward it to all your friends and colleagues' is normally a scam email causing servers to crash >> http://www.sophos.co.uk/security/hoaxes/olympic.html
