ISP Glossary:
Processor Cycle - I had pretty much (foolishly) assumed my name (Patrick A. Townson) andEditor, both e-residing @telecom-digest.org was immune from being usedin outgoing spam and virii attacks. I found out yesterday and todaythat was *not* the case, when I began receiving here at telecom a tonof spam sent here from 'Patrick_A_Townson@telecom-digest.org' and/or'ptownson@telecom-digest.org' addressed to the same name and/orEditor. I am sure many of you have recieved the same baloney in yourown email. Some virii likewise is being sent around the net claimingto be from 'editor@telecom-digest.org'I guess one way of getting someone out of business you dislike is bysending a load of trash under their name, and hope that most readersdo not take the trouble to investigate it. I suppose I should get asignature encryption, slap an 'iron clad' (as that goes) copyright onall my work, including this Digest, etc, but I just do not have theenergy to go to all that work.I do have a good idea where much of the trash is coming fromoriginally, but proving it of course, is another thing entirely.Those of you who have been annoyed by the same trash bearing my nameplease be assured it is NOT coming from me, even as clever as theforger seems to be. The spam has dealt with everything from work athome schemes through other get rich on the net plans and penisenlargement plans. I do hope the two people (primarily) who raisedthe biggest stink about the Porn Worm thing and claimed it (porn)was the 'direction the Digest was going' won't wind up getting thisother stuff and get hysterical about it also.Patrick Townson
