The Random Ramblings of mattfast1

  If you are like me, you get hundreds of messages a day. No, they are not all hate mail; nor are they from friends. Yes, they are spam. Spam constitutes roughly 227% of my e-mail every day, causing me to turn on filters that, for some reason, hate all mail with “msn.com”, “hotmail.com”, and “microsoft.com” domains. Oh, right, that is a “feature” of Netscape’s filter. Well, anyway, there are still people who are stupid enough to open any and all attachments they recieve. After all, if someone is sending you e-mail, they would only want to give you something in your best interests, right? If they were malicious hackers, they wouldn’t want to send you a false advertisment, that tells you to open the attachment, right?

  Unfortunately, people still do this. People I’ve NEVER EVEN HEARD OF start telling me that their servers are detecting viruses in their e-mail. Messages that I NEVER SENT are bounced back to me at a rate of once every 10 minutes until hell freezes over. If I bought everything those advertisements told me to, I would have a 100-foot long penis and a nice piece of ass to go with it. I would own brand-new Dell laptops for fractions of the price demanded by Dell. Viruses would be history, thanks to the 20 virus scanners running on my computer that cost 500 bucks apiece. None of this is true, but people still do it.
