Can't Comcast just create a tar-pit so that any luser who tries to send more than, say, ten emails an hour ends up with a very long wait (20 minutes per connection). It won't shoot the spam dead but it would certainly make it a whole lot harder for the folks controlling the zombies.
Blocking port 25 may have undesirable side effects.
The BBC Charter prevents them from advertising. Yet they can run a "story" that is just a hidden advert for Pro-plus caffeine pills. I'm going to demand a refund on my TV licence fee.
Aha, this is sort of like what I've been looking for (while running, indeed) - a device that i can log my heartrate with, and read into a computer later on. Has to be very portable and jog-proof of course.. anyone?
Adobe Acrobat installs a virtual PDF printer so you can create PDFs from any application; and for Word in particular it goes so far as to add an "export to PDF" button right onto the toolbar.
Why would I need to spend money on creating PDFs? I just use Ghostscript. (I've got the free Adobe Postscript printer driver - so that I can get a good PS file out of OpenOffice.)
To illustrate some more. Your grocery store hires an armed guard - which happens to be a 80-year old man. You buy something, walk out. The guard shoots you, thinking that you are a robber (or whatever else daydream the guard happened to have.) You spend $10,000 in hospital and $50,000 in lost wages.
We don't need armed guards on stores in the UK. We have the strictest gun laws in the Western world (even stricter than Canada). We also have free, universal healthcare.
No, in civil lawsuits you go after everybody who has any relation to your problem. Unrelated people will be dropped from the suit by the judge.
I've just found the best job in the world. It's easy money. Just sit back and mail out the "Nope, not us" letters.
And the job is...
... Lawyer for Pfizer.
By your rules every spammer caught peddling Viagra could drag Pfizer into their case. (If that's true the American legal system is very broken. I hope that wouldn't happen here in the UK.)

I wonder how they're going to filter the SPAM and how they're going to extract the URLs from the crap e-mail that they send to /dev/null.

It's hardly new and I can't see how VMWare can get a patent, it's prior art.
In my day we built a counter out of two transistors for each flip-flop stage.
I'll bet they can't take an air blast nuclear detonation.
