Unfortunately, I am locked in with hotmail at this point since over the years I've given out my address to colleagues, professors, and friends. About 6 months ago, a very obscene message started popping up every time I went to compose an e-mail. I've tried to contact hotmail to no avail in order to fix this annoying problem. I was wondering if you might have any ideas on 1)how it could have gotten there in the first place (perhaps from opening some random SPAM??)and 2) how in the hell can I get rid of it (without changing my account)????? thanks

"revocation of patent is possible but usually impractical since this requires a lot of time and money"
So, what is Amazon and E-bay doing in order to invalidate these ridiculous patents??
