For those against the Lycos screensaver and the way it fights spam, please read on.

If you're honestly against spam and think this isn't the way to fight it, please tell me what the right way is?

Keeping ignoring it?! Or waiting, while the law seems to take no measures to stop it

I believe if you are against the screensaver it's either because:

1. You don't get enough spam on your inbox to annoy you;

2. You don't think about how much healthier the internet and your email inbox will become if the screensaver (or any other method) succeeds in eradicating spam;

3. Or, you don’t want the spamming business to vanish for some reason... maybe because you’re part of it?!
If you're honestly against spam and think this isn't the way to fight it, please tell me what's the right way?

Keeping to ignore it? I think not.
