   Whether that's true or not (and who knows all that these kinds of things really do, we probably only get to know about the major functions...) is makes no difference.This crap is clogging up mail servers all over the place. It accounts for one in 22 e-mails - that's AWFUL!. Think of the wasted bandwidth, wasted computing resources. This is terrible. Someone needs to stop these things, and stop them dead. Not just the viral infection of machines - we need to catch the people doing this and bring them to justice. This isn't hacking. This isn't good. Its evil, and it needs to be stopped.[Edited by phantasm66 on 2005-05-05 09:28:27]

   unfortunately there isnt a whole lot people can do about it other than attempt to block it at the mail server level and be sure antivirus is fully functional. using a personal firewall other than windows firewall would help of course, but how many average computer users actually know what a firewall is?
