ICQ Sucks!
-
I just got this from Trillian, via ICQ: "Session Start (ICQ - 171567174:Natalya(mail)): Mon Jan 27 09:28:33 2003 Natalya(mail): Sender IP: 199.106.212.8 Subject: Hello from Ukraine! Hi there My name is Natalya. I live in Ukraine and I am looking for new friends all over the world. I found your in ICQ LoveMatch derictory and I got interested in your profile. If you want to know more about me, you may read about me here confidentialconnections.com/?pr=nsi I'm looking forward to your reply. See you soon." It actually came from a Shun Toda in Japan (rd006019@se.ritsumei.ac.jp)! What the hell is the point of this sort of nonsense? The website is a wife importing service for Ukraine ladies, and the ICQ Lovematch derictory(sic) is a list I've never heard of! Geez - can't even use an IM service without the friggin spammers getting hold of the address!!! BTW - The website features some major heifers.:-D Nobody wants to read a diary by someone who has not seen the shadow of Bubba on the prison shower wall in front of them!

Paul Watson, on BLOGS and privacy - 1/16/2003There is an option in ICQ (and trillian) to ignore messages from users not in your contact list - I used to get lots of spam messages until I turned that on -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

I guess I've been lucky - this is the first such message. And, as the pesky popup keeps reminding me, I've been using Trillian for over 5000 hours.:) Nobody wants to read a diary by someone who has not seen the shadow of Bubba on the prison shower wall in front of them!
