Not <DIV></DIV>>wanting him to be exposed to this kind of stuff, I insisted that I closed his AOL <DIV></DIV>>email address and opened up a new one for him. He wasn't particularly <DIV></DIV>>impressed by this idea, but I had the last word on the matter ;-) <DIV></DIV>>His new AOL email address took only a few moments to set up and everything <DIV></DIV>>seemed fine. Unfortunately, when he went online with his new email address the <DIV></DIV>>very next morning, the spammers had already left him a couple of emails. <DIV></DIV>>Given that his new email address had only existed for a matter of 12 hours or <DIV></DIV>>so and that he hadn't sent any emails yet, it looks as though the spammers <DIV></DIV>>are always one step ahead of us! <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Cheers, <DIV></DIV>>Rob. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Rob Elliott <DIV></DIV>>www.meteorites.uk.com <DIV></DIV>>Fernlea Meteorites, <DIV></DIV>>The Wynd, <DIV></DIV>>Off Dickson Lane, <DIV></DIV>>Milton of Balgonie, <DIV></DIV>>Fife.
