    Default A trap for spammers!

    Hey guys check this out! http://www.projecthoneypot.org/
    It is an app or something that gives false email adresses to email harvesters that spam us everyday. I just hope this works nicely in the end. DISCUSS...

    Interesting. I just don't think e-mail harvesters will fall into this so easily. But, I might be wrong, and this will result in the end of spam.

    No, no. This is a very bad thing. If I use this, I wont get any mail.

    But seriously. It could work. At my old address, I had spam like crazy ([email protected]) but with the new addy of mine, its not an issue.

    *PSA* Wii Redump collector's can now unscrub ISO files. So scrubbed games can now be verified. You can find the program to do this here
