KC-

I totally agree with the fact that you can, with some extreme measures rid yourself from the spam. I wrote a little Liniux program that does the trick well.

But what I find most disconcerting is that adult webmasters have found it necessary to intrude on individuals who have stared a clear preference that they don't want the spam, whatever their reasons may be.

I guess, why are we infringing on these peoples rights to be free from what they consider "objectional spam" by going out of our way to make sure they recieve it , whether they like it or not.

I am a runner (not a very good one), but I compete in various 10k races to keep myself in shape and enjoy the outdoors. The last thing that I want at the end of a race is a hot cup of cofeee. Bit essentially that is what is being served up with these spammers....If someone has stated (through filtering software) that they aren't interested in recieved pornographic spam, or dick enlargement ads, or cp or anything else. What the fuck are we doing trying to defeat the user controls and sneaking porno oriented spam in thier mailboxes. I can almost guarantee that this will bite us in the ass in the long run.
