what's with the Korean propaganda?

gaunty · 06-12-2002, 12:44 PM

in the past few months, lately when I visit the iron works forums.
I get loaded with korean spam, is this a common problem, or am I being singled out.

No Korean or any other spam from IW for me....

None here either. Maybe its from those wierd porn sites you visit [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Korean propaganda??? I never even HEARD of such a thing!

I'm not getting any of that stuff either. (If you didn't figure that out from the first sentance I posted.

)

How do you mean, gaunty? Is something popping up on your screen? I certainly don't think it's from Ironworks!

Just a thought, but do you use Outlook for your email? My office recently switched over and two of us are inundated by Korean language advertisements in our mail and tons of other junk and spam. So it's entirely possible that it's your mail program or some other site you visit that snags your addy. Some engines actually glean addresses from websites where you register for things so there are many ways your spam could have found you.

maybe you need to stop going to those korean porn sites.

Thankyou cloudbringer for telling me that the outlook may be our e-mail
problem. We "the gaunty family" are using a minspring set-up.
Is there a better e-mail program we could be using?

The other site we go to is some kind of garden town, flowers and farming place.
