I shit you not, if only 1/4 of what these guys thought was true, was true, we'd all be living in floating mansions in the sky but we'd also be worried about things like COPA (how old is that:eek:).
Why does the adult industry seem to have such a good rep (in terms of making lots of money) but such a scummy rep (overall) in the mainstream world?

Bill,
In all fairness, i get very little 'adult' spam these days, i am however getting lots and lots of greeting card spam lately along with a lot of 'joke' spam.

I've been seeing a lot of greeting card spam as well. But what has struck me curious most as of late is an onslaught of ".pdf" attachments. Of course, I don't dare open them, but when did that start? And are they actual PDFs? Are PDFs now the new vehicle for viruses?Quote:

I opened a pdf attachment - it totally fooled me. One came from a name I would normally trust, with a pdf (no worries there), but I'm happy to report that it was nothing scary.
Something about a sleazy, scammy stock trade.
I'm also getting the greeting cards - which is odd - but I haven't opened one of those.
I don't get as much adult porn as I used to do, but so much of came out for so long I think that is what hurt the adult industry reputation.Quote:

I have gotten a couple of .pdf's and I just delete them all now.
But, with all the politicians starting their run now for the 08 elections, we are being targeted again, so we are still the bad guys. Did you see Mitt Romneys speech? It's about "protecting kids", but also, of course, obscenity on the internet: http://avn.com/index.php?Primary_Nav...tent_ID=292150
As long as these stupid bastards get air time, we will always be the ones with horns and tails.:(
