I've gotten about 36 SPAM emails today. Not my usual 4-6. Anyone getting lots?

I actually have about 4 tiers of spam filtering. The 3rd tier is spamassassin - which bounced 76 emails today as spam.

i got a few more than usual today also....

Figured.

I checked Slashdot, but didn't see anything, so I knew the 914Club wouldn't fail me.

I don't know if this was SPAM, but it was supposedly the FBI has tracked my IP going into 30 different illegal websites. And that I need to fill out their questionaire.

Yeah, apparently I was a bad boy too, because they want me to fill out the same questionnaire.

I didn't know the 914club website and motorsports websites were illegal

I've got you guys beat. My IP has been tracked by the FBI AND the CIA!

The great thing is, it's supposedly from the same person who apparently works at both places! I wonder if the Feds know that she's double dipping!

Only in Canada ......... The Cap'n

The virus is hitting hard. I've been getting emails from earthlink all day, saying that there was a virus detected on my emails. The virus even made the news on the netscape home page.
