Well, if police can bust con artists and prostitutes, why can't they drag away spammers? Thirty days in jail would undoubtedly send a message. Computer crimes get taken less seriously than their "real world" counterparts, despite publicity about financial losses caused by this kind of thing. It seems like law enforcement doesn't want to slap the cuffs on someone unless they actually see them stealing a little old lady's purse.

Keith, Well, it wouldn't matter if there was legislation or not, it's not going to stop. If you tell them they HAVE to add ADV to the front of all "spam" it wouldn't work. There would still be plenty who wouldn't. So more laws won't help. Thankfully we have products like Declude and IMgate to help us out. Tho wouldn't it be cool to write some code that goes back to a spammer's pc and wipes it out? heh heh.... <VERY evil grin> Scott? LOL! under global cfg have a test SPAM, and in $junk$ SPAM - INFECT!!!!! of course if it was a FALSE positive, send an "I'm sorry" note. LOL!
