Every damned e-mail I get these days is spam...

...and I'm sick and fucking tired of it!

Surely if I killed a spammer, the judge and jury would rule it justifiable homicide?

2. less than 10% of my email is valid...
the vast majority, is spam. It's really very sad. And don't make the mistake of clicking on any 'remove' links. That is a verification of an email address (yours) and only makes it worse.

I loathe spammers. :grr: :argh:

3. I agree, it's driving me crazy...50-60/day
If anyone knows of some "anti-spam" software that is simple and effective, PLEASE post it.

4. It is terrible..
The telemarketers are equally bad. We are elderly and in a lot of pain with every move and we have to race to the phone for someone wanting to feed us baloni. Mr. Moose spends a lot of time trying to outfox them, but to no avail. I'm just waiting for someone, a lot smarter and powerful than we, are to find a way. We don't have enough money to buy the government, though. Mrs. Moose
