Not quite spam, but I remember a month or so ago, that a user billed spammers at the rate of 125$ per hour with a minimum of 10 hours to filter out their email to his/her domain.
Anyways, recently, Radio shack posted my home phone number as one of their local stores. I emailed them a couple weeks to change it and got no response, so I gave them a notice to remove it within 24 hours or I'd bill them the same amount (1250/10hours), to route their phone calls to the correct store.
I went to the store and they also have it listed on their reciepts and said they're having it listed in the phone book. They told me that they shipped in the notice to not print it in the phone book and were working on the reciept prints, but the website was up to corporate, so that's who I'm billing.
They have until 5:32 tonight to change the number on their website or they're getting a daily invoice.
I don't care if it works or not, I'd love the cash, but I'd love even more the phone to stop ringing off the hook, its worse than spam.
I work for CompUSA, and they sell sprint phones, and the employee rate is 15$ for 750 any time minutes, free nation wide calling, free long distance, and free wireless internet, only thing they get you on is roaming bleh.
I haven't read tha other comments yet, but come on? who really cares that much about bloating? when you can get gigahertz processors and 72 gigabyte hard drives! What's tha freakin difference if its 1mb or 10mb or 100mb? I mean sure it'd be nice if programmers fixed bugs before making new features, but I really don't care about the size of a program.

How are ya gonna install your first system? w/o a printed manual? Also, who likes to keep switchin back n forth between windows? Also switching between bookmarks in a manual is a lot easier than reloading webpages lol
How is this different than the article about Talk City shutting its gates to other IRC clients? All they are trying to do was stop hacking/flooding/denial of service attacks. For all those that support this, but down TC for doing what they're doing are insane.
I would think that a small device that looked almost like a ps/2 to pc keyboard converter would do a lot better. That way no one would notice the keyboard switch, and unless they're examining the back of hteir computer every time they come in they'd never notice it. I'd definatley buy a couple n stick em on my brother's computer.
Just my 2cents.. I use www.site-works.com and have never had a problem in the last 2 years. However I don't have a very large site, more of a personal one, but still nice to have it never go out:-)
I've been around the Internet for about 6 years =) I remember tha good ol days too, where it was more the knowledge than the buck =) though, the buck is nice =) heheheheh specially if you have the knowledge.

Has anyone tried ASK? Active Spam Killer. It's freeware in linux that will do the same thing.

Your 486 is fast enough to handle the bandwidth of a 10bt network. It'd be fine as a router.
could you imagine an apache server on your wristwatch? gave you a small shock for massage every time you got a webpage hit lololol =)

they're changing the way the servers authenticate. You won't be allowed on period not even to be ctcp'd.
You are so right =)
As a host as well.........
There are MANY MANY users that do this. Probably hundreds since TC has started 4 years ago.
You're so wrong....
WebTV can't run pirch.
Talk City is not owned by NBC.
