Sulfur exhaust stench

Does anyone else have excessive sulfur smells entering their car at stop lights etc. What causes this? Will it go away after another few thousand kms? My civic never stank like this...

ok, so I read some info on the net that lower-quality gas has more sulfur in it, and it sticks to the cat. conv. and that a long road trip will burn it out/off and the smell will be gone.

That sound right?
 
...and then I read more on some other web sites and they said to see your dealer ASAP.

I called the dealer today (whom I trust...so far), he asked how many kms I had (3000) and where I bought gas. He said to burn off this tank completely, then go somewhere else for my gas for a tank...that should clear it up.

I'll let you know...
