nice email Bill thanks for the laugh

And if I know it is going to get spammed, my email is a free webmail account, cheap and disposable.

I tend to use much more vulgar email addresses Especially for McAfee...bafoons make you give an email address for registration.

Can't post em here, though!

"youstink@goaway.com" has always been mine. as for my name? Stevie Wonder, and Bill Clinton are favorites. my zip code? 90210. how I heard about the site? "other"

at one point I had 5 e-mail addresses, all from different sites. one was for school assignments, one was for online registrations, one was for family and friends, and others were spares. oh, one was provided by my college, but contained plenty of spam.

good tips...

I have Ad-Aware, bundled with Ad-Watch (a real-time cookie and pop-up blocker) and Spybot Search and Destroy (by pepik mk software).

oh, and I block third-party cookies. methinks this is enough? if I get hacked, I have some buds over at Blackcode.com who'll take care of any problem, lol. (luckily i haven't had to ask yet)

knowledge is power. don't give 'em the power.

*edit: ROFL, it seems Blackcode.com is under DOS attack. sorry if you can't get through...that site is up sometimes, dunno when they'll fix it. LMAO!
