Windows Live = Spam
What is it with Windows Live? Since upgrading it, I get around 15 spam emails a day. I don't want meds on line, or a rolex, or anyother crap. There doesn't even seem to be the option to stop repeat spam.

I am getting about the same amount of spam. Spam is just a fact of life on the internet, Trojan. Sucks, but hey, this is life.
And Shepards we shall be,
for thee, My Lord, for thee,
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand,
That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy Command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls will it ever be.
In Nomine Patris, Et Filli, Et Spiritus Sancti.

Can I have the rolex if you don't want it?

I have a throw away email address that I use for stuff I KNOW is going to generate spam, and I check it every week or so. I generally have something like 50 spam emails every time I check, and maybe 5 things I actually signed up for. It helps keep the crap out of my regular inbox. Also, as I'm fairly certain that everyone already knows, it's a HORRIBLE idea to post your email address on something like a public comment board or to reply in ANY way to a spam email. It lets them know that they actually have a good address, and then you're screwed.
