well if a spammer sends out 1.000.000 emails and only 0.5% answer back then you got 500 answers. And if they buy that stuff for $14.99, then he alrady made a win, because he himself never sent out the emails, so he had no spendings there. lg, clemens -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFBagH3jBz/yQjBxz8RAufGAKCc23IfvZZVlwDLu6vVWxW+VOGc7gCg1o9J W8OAYblC2tVCv21MSvNtM/Y= =yiYh -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
