Spam and hackers - Aaargh!

Posted by: Aqua Blog Maven on April 23, 2008 at 6:12 am

Some of my regular readers might have noticed the indelicate “Gurus Suck” ad that was forever stuck in the Google ad bar below the heading. I remember thinking it was not necessarily the usual Google ad, but didn’t give it much thought, until Aqua Spouse looked at it and said something is wrong.

Wrong, indeed. Hackers managed to insert their own ad over the Google ad, and getting rid of it was quite a challenge. In a probably unrelated event, my email box got spammed big time, filling up with returned mail from Daemon & everywhere. We finally had to just batch delete the whole shooting match because it was just too much to pick through.

So…. if you emailed me last night for your free refrigerator magnet, or to offer me that high-paying writing/editing/water resource management (anything with a paycheck) job, then please write back!!!

I still have some refrigerator magnets left. Completely free for the asking! Just email me your address, and I’ll send it to you. You’ll receive no other mail from me; I am not compiling a list. Just addressing the envelope, that’s it. Completely free, Free, FREE!

Of course, you can donate if you’d like, but it’s not a requirement. ;)

(Gary, I did get your donation. I appreciate it very much! Refrigerator magnet on it’s way to you!)
