You're right, take India as an example as well if you like. Take the richest 60 million or so Indians and they make out an economy stronger than Germany. Take the richest 5-10% of the chinese... And remember - Chinas economy is growing rapidly, and has a great potential.
I think the key word here is "W98", try upgrading to Win2k. I'm not a windows fan, but there is a huge difference in stability when upgrading from W98 to W2k..
You're right. And I can't think of any other way to identify the same email being sent from another address, possibly one of an innocent hotmail user.:-)
As many of you have written, it only takes a few days after you open your hotmail account until you start getting 100+ spams everyday. Why don't the administrators of hotmail create an account, add all the email addresses and topics of the emails that are sent to that address and delete / block all emails that correspond with those on the list from everybodys account. I know this would probably use a lot of CPU-time, but that will be saved by being able to block many of the spams that are sent to regular users. I also know that the senders address sometimes is accountholdersname@spamsender.com, this can also easily be avoided by enabling the user to block all email sent to him having that address.
This is in no way waterproof -- I know. But it will certainly make life easier for the hotmail / yahoo users. The problem is of course that when these siter start using it, the spammers will find ways to work around it. It is important however, that we do what we can to make life as misorable as possible for those SOB's

Hello mr Hoffa, long time no see!
The cloud is however not heavier than the air surrounding it. The 'surprising' thing about this is how much mass a cubic meter of air really weighs.
