I vaguely recall hearing it was, but, well I hear a lot of that sort of stuff and much of it isn't that interesting so it doesn't all stick. Have to say I've had 4 spam in 2 days, all filtered by software, although I think I may have corresponded with the Belgium company trying to sell me Excel training in Flemish(?), but they clearly don't have me well targeted on technology or language. Which is about the normal rate. Did notice a few "help I'm stuck abroad - send money" type cons recently. But discussion of spam is a bigger problem for my signal to noise than the spam itself ;) Worse still I enjoy that discussion more than more pressing things to do.... -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
