Yeah... the spam and parasite :-/

I think Yahoo and SBC are way too spammers friendly. No abuse support... I have even heard rumors that SBC actually have hosting some spammers. Now SBC email are host by Yahoo, and Pacbell merged with SBC, and my email has running into some big problems ever since Pacbell become SBC. The joy... but I am going to getting out it soon. I will change my ISP from the "sewer rats" to the "piggish hog"...

Thanks for the links :-)

Oh... forget one thing. To anyone who have SBC DSL. Go into their program folders, SBC have some spyware that come with their DSL software...

Iggle!

It's me, Chris Sawyer. :)

I had a old navy friend say something funny to me in e-mail, so I think I am gonna do the persona thing online for awhile. Might not be a bad idea. :)

Coolness!
Have fun with the moniker, harpy, er.. I mean, Kikapu! :D

I wonder if that name has anything to do with Lil' Abner's Kikapu Joy Juice!!

I've also noticed that in the last couple of weeks lots of people I know (including me) been getting several virus-infected emails pretending to be Micorosft updates, so now is as good a time as any for everyone to make sure your antivirus software is up to date.

yeah... positively nasty stuff. ;P
in the last several months I've seen two machines so far trashed that they couldn't be rescued... *sigh*

most of 'em are fixable though... a few days ago I went to a friend's and we (luckily) found that the system wasn't that far gone :>
thank goodness for a few saving graces here and there...! *wags feathers*
