|  [OT] Get rid of spam
Just a little off-topic note, but it probably affects a lot of us. I recently installed SpamPal (website: http://www.spampal.org), and it does an excellent job of getting rid of all those unwanted emails. It was easy to install (I use it with Outlook Express, but it works with many other email programs), and it does a fabulos job! I spent a lot of time trying to set up filters in Outlook Express, but basically they suck (don't work well, easy for spammers to go around them.) Bottom line: it's good and it's free, what more can you ask for? More time for Plus/4 stuff I guess.

The nice thing about SpamPal is that it will automatically create a whitelist for all your friends, colleagues etc. from whom you receive non-spam email on 7 separate days. They seem to have thought of everything.
