Tell me about it. I'm in the process of reading up on Bogofilter because my current anti-spam setup is not as effective as it used to be. I was joking anyhow, but I meant the nearly hysterical e-mails I used to get all the time from 50 different people telling me to WATCH OUT FOR THIS VIRUS, IT WILL CRASH YOUR COMPUTER AND EAT YOUR DOG. Haven't seen one in awhile, that's all. I'm now looking forward to the 'forward this e-mail to 10 people and you will get $100 from Bill Gates'. -- JoeHill / RLU #282046 / www.freeyourmachine.org 19:06:04 up 63 days, 20:14, 8 users, load average: 0.13, 0.25, 0.61 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world - bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully.
