"Spam and chips"
-
Okay... so... continuing my obsession with all things spam related... What levels of spam are we all getting on a daily basis. I'm sure we've all seen the recent studies which say that your average corporate bod spends an average of 4 hours a week separating spam from the good stuff costing £$s in lost productivity... Personally, I get about 250 - 300 spam mails every day to two long standing but unfortunately still needed mail addresses. I have a decent spam filter but that catches all but about 10 of those... the only problem is that I have such a lack of faith in the anti-spam system that I still have to scan the killed folder to check for false positives... (and there are one or two occasionally which dents my faith further..) [for what it's worth I think most of the spam comes from a time when it was "cool" to enter your friends e-mail addresses into websites with pointless java games and e-greetings and jokes etc... cheers guys!!] What's everyone elses experience... personally and commercially.. (but let's not get down to a "my spam schlong is longer that yours" type debate!) ;) Shaun ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Shaun Austin: .NET Specialist.

I get anywhere up to 30 per day. It's a bit aggravating sometimes, but far from bogs me down.

Not particularly. I mean she is cute in a generic air brushed way but she only floats my boat to the half an inch line. There is a hundred million more attractive girls than her out there. And her "music" is just horrendous while her attitude irks me.

>or, here[^]. Hell yeah, I like Jolie a lot. For her attitude as well as her beauty. >or, here[^] Meg is cool. Does not boil my blood but she must be a good character. Whenever I think Meg I think of two things; Orgasms and F O X. >Say here[^] Never heard of her but she looks nice. >She's fun to look at when she's shaking her money-maker I saw the one Esquire photo shoot shot and had to admit it was hot. But that was after the hours of makeup, posing, lighting and air brushing. Plus it was not at all like her normal style (and the rest of the shots sucked). My fav is Catherine Zeta-Jones though. Ever since Darling Buds of May. Hubba, hubba. ;) regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Marc Clifton wrote: "organically fed captivity free regurgitated bee nectar" (honey) on dieting.

I have gotten to the point where I just use trusted sender lists. If I give out my email I get either their email, or if its a forum mailer I just trust the domain. Matt Newman
