You are welcome my good friend JMAN

Thanks for the update KRosh

indeed !

Yeah, I was initially taken in by the headline, but as usual sensationalism overruled any logic involved.

The guy was into more serious stuff than sending out a bunch of e-mail, and got what was coming to him. (my :2 cents: )

get a grip man

if he wasnt a spammer it wouldnt have even made the news

1 down and 747 to go

Fuck America and there spam laws, fucking de-generate hahahahas

lol...i think they're hoping it has a deterrent effect on the others...

but looks like it doesnt cause spam went up in the past week!

So how exactly was he using fake identites?
if he was using forged addys how did they catch him?

How does this relate to the fact that instead of 500 spam emails in my ISP account I get daily today I only received 5 today?
