On the subject of spam, I wander why it is we are so critical about spam but not by junk mail that comes in our boxes. We recieve loads of adverts from various stores, and coopons, etc each week and though some are quite usefull most are just spam, bar a few acceptions Most of us happily accept spam snail mail in fact we look foreward to it including the local papers we never subscribed to.
Yet electronic spam is not accepted at all.
I just find it interesting.

What? spam? Well... in a nutshell... spam is just unnecessary messages, and in the case of email you may get advertizing, and URL's like the one michael sent usually will take you to some frod site just waiting to send your Credit card data to a hacker who set it up. So if someone didn't know that and saw that michael lost his job they could have went to that site, gave his/her CC details there, and then realizing that he/she got atad more than they bargained for.
