An unending torrent of spam
 

" New laws and software fail to stop 'junk' e-mail

Alyx Sachs is no longer sending people e-mail offering to "fix your credit risk free."
.
Confronted by an increasing number of individuals, businesses and Internet service providers using software meant to identify and discard unwanted junk e-mail - commonly know as spam - Sachs has been forced to become more creative in her marketing pitches. The subject line on her credit e-mail, for example, now reads "get a fresh start."
.
From a small office on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, millions of messages that Sachs and her partner prepare on behalf of others are still going out to e-mail in-boxes every day, promising not just to restore a poor credit rating but also to sell printer ink, 3-D glasses and, lately, playing cards with pictures of wanted Iraqi leaders.
.
In the cat-and-mouse game of e-mail marketers and those trying to stop them, the spammers are still winning."
