is anyone really use this?

I keep getting spam from plp Ive emailed like once or twice saying please join my email list over here.

Why, we've spoken once.....

and I dont get the request once, I get it like once a week or so.

Bebo wants my name, address everything. Im surprised it hasnt asked me for my credit card number and a urine sample yet.

Think this is a virus sending out spam to plp on there email contacts.

Argh.
Ive had my hotmail addy for 10yrs+, and Im getting somewhere in the neighbourhood of 100 spam emails a day.

jumped alot around 2002. before that, maybe 20 or so, then all of a sudden boom. 5 emails for me, 120 something in the junk mail folder. Sometimes I go through it and find emails for me from some freinds who rarely email me, and I gotta fix the filters.

Yep.

These are really annoying! I've gotten about 10 of these in the past week. And when you don't sign up, they send additional requests. There also seems to be a whole other batch coming from a different website.
