    Well Done Microsoft, going to court for a good reason.

    http://news.com.com/2100-1026_3-1018140.html?tag=fd_top

    MS is suing spammers, at last a reason to compliment Microsoft...oportunities like these are few and far between.

    And hopefully they have the clout to back some of those W%$#er spammers off

    Yup! This is a tiny drop in the ocean and will have zero effect. Can anyone explain why the security in the Microsoft sites was so low that the defendants were able to harvest the e-mail addresses.

    This appears to be aimed at taking the heat off Microsoft for making it so easy for spammers to exist.

        ENLARGE YOUR PENIS NOW WITH ... (insert name of fake penis pill here) ... !

        *ahem*

        In case nobody heard, the people behind the most famous penis pill, "Longitude" - which was advertised in national magazines and sold throughout the world - were arrested, indicted, and locked up pending trial recently. Their homes were raided and all their possessions confiscated. Their pills were found to be the same whether you bought penis, breast, muscle, or golf-score enhancing pills. Yikes!

        They're being sued for tens of millions of dollars.

        Spammers of the USA, BEWARE. The attourney general is coming for you!

                So the other day my wife says to me "your dick is just too damn big, sometimes it hurts".

                Oh no wait, that was a dream. *sigh*

                    My wife says it is too damn true to be funny, even in a dream. She is a lot happier now that I can no longer rise to the occasion. The trouble is that the spirit is willing if the flesh is weak since the lower abdomen was zapped. Maybe I should have some of AZ's pills?

                        Brian, it is perfectly OK to take medical action if your body is failing of age or illness - it is however very, very stupid to just take some alleged "wonder pills" you have never even heard of before, not from a doctor, not from a pharmacist, but from some dubious guys who send spam email.

                        But perhaps I just didn't get the joke, I'm tired. Anyway, I'd never make fun of anyone else's health problems, but I laugh at people who buy wonder pills.

                          Don't worry AZ: I'm an anti-medication type, as far as is reasonable. My only regular intake is 100 mg of Aspirin/day and half a smallest size ACE pill/day, both for obvious reasons and under medical control. I would never take anything to change the psyche or sexuality and, least of all, non-prescription drugs, including anything hawked on the Internet or in non-pharm shops.

                          I try not to laugh about anyone's medical condition, except my own, which is worthy of many guffaws
