anyone who cuts into my paycheck. a lot of the adware/spyware isn't far from being a virus. i'd say those 2 are right up there (virus writers/adware&spyware).

I voted email spammers because they're the ones that waste most of my time.

I don't think I'd shed a tear if they were all rounded up and shot.... Well, maybe a tear of joy.

There's a difference between malicious and annoying. Viruses, taliban etc are malicious... spam, trolls etc are annoying. Anything that hurts people or their property is always worse than something that's a mere inconvenience.

Good point. But the amount of time it would have taken me to reinstall windows and all the software I need to rid myself of malicious software pales in comparison to the amount of time I've spent filtering / deleting / sifting through spam every single day.

They're all pretty shitty, but spam, to me, is the worst.
