You might want to look into charging the person who sent that spam with extortion. It seems to fit the definition to me.

I get pop-ups all the time saying:
"Do you hate pop up ads?"

I had a throwaway MSN email address once. Before I could give it to anyone, it was full of spam. I'm talking hundreds of emails.. They have a pay service that has spam blockers. Funny thing, I think. Seems to me they give out email addresses so you get spammed to hell & back so you will opt in on their pay service.

The same thing happened to me but it was a reputable ISP, not MSN (hehe). I created a new mailbox, setup my email client and checked for new mail. Not five minutes had passed and my inbox was already stuffed with spam.

Check it out: http://211.162.108.119/o.htm?mjVfZ It goes as far as to tell you "you dont want to remove your address" from their database!

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS!
