It was dark at 5:00 pm! * (Nov 21 2003 23:59 GMT) - In the middle of my doctor's visit the doctor asked if I'd ever seen a therapist.** Before I had a chance to tell her that I hadn't, she looked up from her notes with a worried expression. "That doesn't mean you're crazy!" she said. I laughed and told her not to worry, that I wasn't upset over the question. |

Spam Rager Among Those Charged With Cybercrime (Nov 21 2003 23:55 GMT) - Yesterday we wrote about how the Department of Justice was congratulating themselves on arresting a bunch of folks for online scams. Today, a bit more news comes out about some of these "scams". One of them appears to be a guy who got extremely pissed off at some adware and threatened one of the companies using the adware. The details aren't entirely clear, but it appears that the guy blamed the adware on a company claiming to be the "Only Reliable, Medically Approved Penis Enhancement" company. So, he contacted them and demanded that they stop flashing ads on his computer, and when they didn't comply he went a bit overboard and threatened to send them anthrax or to shoot them. |
