They are spamming your e-mail, they will spam websites, they will continue to spam until they stop making $$$. I do not want to just stop them, I want them to stop trying. |

Erase and delete without saving and it is over, not even in history. They have nothing to show they even tried. They have been beat. - I checked it with this link xoopswiki feed on Giba's page Giba Verified its accuracy. __________________________________ I now USE SPAMMERS PRODUCTIVELY, as a reminder to refresh a RSS feed page that NEEDS manual updating.
