Poor old Naplips. That rebranded Telidon (from Canada) was always a solution looking for problem. A device-independent text and graphical display protocol. Who would ever need something like that eh?
Overclocked to 300 bps, those ASR-33s must have been ready to Chernobyl at any second.;) I think the problem was COBOL. Interactive terminals were wasted on the COBOL of that age (or any). A few games and BASIC might have sparked more interest.
You'll also want to block 445 as well. I think Microsoft shifted those functions up to 445 (with a downshift to 135 if 445 doesn't work.)
I added a couple of splat sound effects for those ports for absolutely no good reason. (Doom 2 SFX on ports 3127, 5554, 6129 and 9898. Now that's creepy!)
Over several years there have been a number of exploits that worked just by reading the email, or the preview pain displaying it.
They keep saying that it's safe to turn on the preview pain, and that the water is warm--come on in, but previous times that ended with people disappearing in bubbles and pink water.
Still, the people that open a "H0T CH1QUES" email, open the attachment, open the passworded zip file in the attachment.. and run it. There's just no hope for them.
So.. if you were able to see the entire process involved in producing a hamburger made from 100% top-grade ground beef, you grab it, take a big bite and go mmmmmm?
There might be steam-seperation and less popular bits of meat involved, but I'd take Spam over a hotdog any day. (Meat marshmallows made from lips and.. the other lips.)
Some of the bigger ones do pay for technically competent people. The tricks like asymetrical routing are quite clever. (Sending huge amounts of mail from a small ADSL line where the ISP has blocked outgoing port 25.:)
Of course, those spammers don't play the musical registration game. They get a pink "bullet-proof" contract with UUNET/Worldcom/MCI.
No, spam can be turned into a work of art or literature. But then, so can any other kind of turd.
Oh, and it's not censorship. He's not a government or publisher. The spammer can find other places to publish his work other than my mailbox. (Just like wannabe painters can't exhibit in my living room.)
Which was the one where you could social engineer people into having them take their avatar's head off -- and then you steal the head? It must have been fun to watch all the headless newbie avatars walking around.

No, that it what I am called on NANAE.
And if you don't have skilled network operators, just change your domain to point to 216.250.128.21 until the attack blows over.
Do they have web sites? Post them on /. so everyone can have a look. :)
And useful additions like "People who have searched for 'goat sex' have also searched for these items..."

How could they resist the temptation to say .. "Notebook'em Danno!"
Damn, it's out of paper. Anyone have Bill's pager number?
Well, I certainly wouldn't want to share my joystick with the whole world!

Even with the ZoneAlarm freebie, you can define IP zones to allow your LAN in, but not the Internet. (It's not a good solution at all, but it works.)
With printer sharing, the world can share its documents with you! (I'm sure the spammers will find this useful.)
Excellent idea. You go first.

You must be new here. :P

You could always send your resume out in a virus and see what offers you get. That seems to be the new thing. :)

Railguns are good, but where are the frikken lasers?
So you want 3D, do you? Come to think of it, there might be advantages!
Last time I looked Cybertown and NeoPets were heavily into the Happy (un)Fun Cult. (Neopets are also marketing survery spammers.)
