If any of you find it before I do, please let me know.

It really amazes me though. You dont just get spammed through emails, its you Instant messenger as well. How do these IM bots find you? I dont go into chat rooms so I dont understand.

Its a consipracy I tell you lol
Ummmmmmmmmm

A few million people already beat ya to the alliance, it's called SpamCop but even they have come over to the dark side now I think since it sold lol

Secondly, you're email is getting hammered because it's published on several web pages. There's no way to block it now.... for every hole that's plugged, a new one is opened.

Also, spamming the spammers back is a waste of time considering spammers do not use their real emails, IPs or return addys. You're more likely to hit an unknown address and get even more bounced mail back or piss off someone who they are posing as.

As far as IM spam, you're getting spammed because you have a profile or info filled out. That's all it takes... you don't need to be in a chat room.

Lastly... WoW! you junior anti!!!
Let someone mail your site for a day and I'm sure you'll be singing a different tune

PS. spamtec (ytcracker and phlow) - what is spam? Have a listen!
