>A place where I worked had an ISP (name withheld) that was unreal. I would get to work in the morning and have a mail box full of x-rated advertisements, along with "get rich quick" crap. Stuff like - Send me ten dollars and send this letter to ten people. You will make a $100,000 a day like I am. This is not a pyramid scheme. It is real - just try it. I called the ISP to complain and they could care less - it was a part of the ISP’s revenue.

This is typical of her emails. I have talked to the ISP to no avail. It seems that some place she visits is just broadcasting her address across the Web. It is funny that some come addressed to "Connie Jo". My wife is Janice. I have told her to adjust her habits a bit, like using Google vs Excite to search, drop her online book clubs, etc. We shall see if it has any affect (effect?).
