Interesting spamming method from that "raj" guy. Looks to me like it's a bot copying posts from forums, then pasting them on other forums where certain keywords match.

I own a dozen email lists and the spammers are getting harder and harder to keep at bay. I have them all set to where everyone is on moderated status when they join then if they post a valid message I set them to unmoderated but stuff is beginning to leak through the cracks. Some are getting around Yahoo's settings somehow. I am also seeing a few that join and actually post a legit first message then start the spamming. In other cases regular members get their email ID hijacked and the spam starts coming in that looks like it is from long term members. I can't moderate all messages, one list alone is over 1,300 members.
I would like to see some of the scammers and spammers doing serious time. :rolleyes: A few hundred "serious" examples would cut the numbers way down. Why should they stop now? There are no real steady consequences and there are plenty of fools out there to keep it very profitable for them. :rolleyes:
If they would just catch them and turn them over to me I could "re-train" them... :D

JPG, you started his as an anything goes post, within reason.....Here is something I will soon need information on.

Building a custom P/U which will have a wood, Red Oak, floor. This truck will be a driver, but not driven in inclement weather. But we all know that the rain will come down. Will soon, I hope be at the stage where it is ready to put the wood in. My question is what type of finish will be best. Will not be hauling anything in this truck, just has to look killer, and be durable.

Any one have suggestions for me? My computer has been giving me fits since last Friday, so have to get on while at work. Hoping to get my internet provided to repair tomorrow. If you have ideas I would appreciate them.

Thanks for any ideas you may have...........Bob
