I've started getting those damn cheap cock-ardening pill spams at work now. Bloody embarrasing bastards, I happened to have the words CHEAP VIAGRA PILLS: MAKE YOUR WOMAN SQUEAL in quite large type on my screen when one of the directors came and sat next to me. Never before has a slowly raised eyebrow and slightly curled corner lippage communicated so much...

A friend of mine started getting those stock market tips spams, but to an account that he closely guards ... anyone else getting those to a trusted account you regulate?

Can I also recommend not giving out your personal personal e-mail address even to career/work places....I now get the occasional resume spam oing 'oh, we read your resume, and think you'd like this site'

grrrrrr

Gambit: had you bought some and smeared it on her eyebrow?!!!

Not the correct way to get a raise

Oh, my name's ken makenson and i'm here for dm. No you aren't, you are ken maken-stuff-up and here to flog your cheap pills - HAH! TWATTED!

ha! I knew it when I first saw his www site (it was something like cheappils.cm or whatever)
NO, I HAVEN`T enter his #$@%$ pills-site lol - in a guestbook the adress of the site appears at the bottom of the screen always when you have a mouse pointer on the .www on the right side from a user`s nickname (you don`t have to click it to get know his adress)

We seem to have had a lot of fake-members joining recently...weird.

Umm, can I suggest people don't look at the websites of people who register, if I thought they were harmless and safe I'd not go through the whole annoying hassle until our database because too large!

And no, I think it'#s been the usual amount..it goes in waves. You may only notice it becuase I'm working harder at work or was off for birthday...I tend to twat them quite quickly when I see them.

FWIW - I've deleted quite a few accounts too.

Then there you go - wuite an epidemic still! :(

You have to wonder how anyone still falls for those types of scams in this day and age, when pretty much everyone should be spam-savvy.

The amount of emails I've had exclaiming "CH3AP V1AGR4!!! existential monsoon papercut windows..."

If only I could figure out how to set Gmail to block addresses and bounce the unwanted mail back as an unrecognised address...

<thinks> Hmm "FWIW"...don't think I seen that one before...ohh "For what's it's worth", right? Yeah probably...okay nm lol.

I actually wonder if it's self protection... so many spams are so close to being perfect you would fall for them, but then have stupid spellign ,so although it's a serious problem, it's not serious enough that there is a major public outcry and serious money/resources devoted to puttig everyone involved behind bars...

only this year i get, more or less, 500 emails about cheap RoLeX/ rulex/ rolix/ roliks, cheap \/iagras, legal drugs (?where is it, in Holland? ), university diplomas (?????), and one guy offered me 50% increasing (... err..what was it.. IQ I think) for free! Sadly I forgot his web site ;(

I don`t use anti-spam filter anymore, because it also cancelles some emails from my from people I know (wchich I don`t have on my adress list) !

Hero Cat: kick him out

BTW: could you disable adding www sites on the memberlist for new members? That would reduce spamming problem, I think

Spammers would still join and put the spamm link in their desciptions of the interests I reckon

Hey, congrats sir! Glad things are looking up -- a nice young lady always works wonders, and even older ones work quite well too as I can atest after my birthday party on Friday night...

So you need some steam eh? I wonder what for.....

I dunno about pseudopod, but I know that snails are definitely gastropods. Aww ickle bubby snails squelching around leaving icky tiny slime trails .

Thanks people!!!

Your words are much appreciated.

And she rides a mountainbike. Woohoo!!!!!!!!

I wish I had a more exciting and female oriented reason for not being here for a while but I haven't. I'm just lazy coupled with the fact that I've had no Interweb I'm back now though so you can all run and hide by not speaking to me in flashchat! HAHA!

Oh and nice one Paul!

wow ! what a crowd !!!

I`m getting strange emails with

Help Echelon! Don`t let the terrorists set a BOMB in Washington! They`re our last secret hope against the Iraki Sect of Explosive Murdering Subversive Communist Conspiracy!

messages on the bottom of normal text (added automaticly, I guess without the sender`s permission). Anyone knows what the hell is it? There`s no link or adress. A joke? A spam? What`s that "conspiracy" and how can I stop them?

Umm, that was the sig file of zyx's mails

oh, ok then I though that CIA is advertising on the net

"They set us up the bomb!"




Sorry, had to say that...

Hi guys, just spent two weeks in Newcastle with my new bird! Fantastic, going really well! First relationship for 5 years and since my illness kicked it... glad to report the old boy still works
