I have come up against some other tricks they try to pull on us:
Occasionally I have clicked on he phrase "Click here to remove" and instead 
of an email window popping up I get to look at some barely clad young "girls" 
(and I use that term loosely).  Other times the Remove instructions are typed 
in Wingdings or some other non-alphabetical font and to read it I have to 
select it and chose a 'real' font.  Neither of these issues has anything to 
do with Karen's excellent instructions on fighting this junk, but it's 
interesting to see how far these people will go to try and cover their 
behinds.
Hmmmm, I count at least 3 bad puns in that paragraph.   ;-)

<< Just like sending to TOSspam (and I do it as a CC of the same e-mail), you 
 forward a copy to "abuse" or "postmaster" at the sender's ISP.  For example, 
 the return address is [EMAIL PROTECTED], you would send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
and/or 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Even foreign ISPs use the address "abuse", in English.
 
 Hint: some of this stuff comes in with the background set to black so you 
 can't read the header.  Just click-and-copy the top portion of the e-mail, 
 paste it into your e-mail writing program, and click on your own color 
 selection to change the background to white ... voila, you can read it and 
 turn them in.  <Smirk> >>
