Hi,
I don't care what they call it, but we need to find a way to dis-enchant these people. I don't want their emails, either to beg for money or push me to buy their items...and I don't want their junk on my computer, taking up disk space, and creating myriads of holes when I delete the things.
Go for it!!! I will be happy to participate in this experiment...using ALL of my computers.
This is the best thing since "Bouncing" of emails was developed....which I see is now gotten around by using bogus originating addresses so they don't get the emails back. Seems to me those addresses (correct ones) were a requirement of emails....much like Faxing requires the correct originator's phone number...
I will tell all my friends to use this Screensaver.....until the laws simply relegate this type of offensive behaviour as ILLEGAL....and don't bother me about my actions to retaliate....I've had enough...I will fight with whatever tools I can get my hands on....
'Nuff said
