hey there... it sure is about time that I got a copy from anti-spam
group... My name is Aaron and I am into spam fighting. Currently, I am a
member of the Spam Brigade, a pretty tough group and enjoy kicking the
spammers off the net. We currently have a web-site, and you may want to
check it out. We have good contents on it. (tutorials, links to softwares
and even a kill list from out members) So if you ever get curious of what
is on that site, feel free to check it out.
