Last time I checked, to turn off window animations in XP you had to either get a third party program, like TweakUI, or had to edit the registry.
Maybe you're not too used to XP and clearly, you're used to Ubuntu more than XP, so going from memory about XP features is something you should not be doing.
A lot of people here are saying that more than 40% of their email is spam and that the figure quoted is somehow wrong. A lot of people here also fail to take into consideration that the 40% figure is very likely an approximation or an average and is not valid for every single user on the internet. Being computer literate, having a website, posting on different websites and other internet activities contribute to more spam because of email harvesting. Sure, you and I get more spam than the average Joe, my spam is more like 80% of all emails received, but do not forget about all the people that are on AOL and have only given their email to their family relatives. Granted, they will receive some spam too, but surely not as much as the rest of us.
