...strip them naked...

...and tie them spreadeagled for a couple of days in the karoo with no sun protection...

Spam is starting to become a serious problem now.

Damn I though the ex soviet countries would be on top.

Anyway. I've not seen a single piece of spam in a few months. I'm carefully where I put my address though.

...strip them naked...

And put a tin of spam somewhere?

How do I get rid of email spam? Do I contact Telkom? Do I have to change my email? How did they get it in the first place? I don't give websites my Telkom email address.

What I don't understand is why they don't go after the vendors who use spam to market their products. If I get spam to sell me some generic viagra, then surely the company that is trying to sell it to me is responsible for the spam? Why not fine *them*?
