PGTS Journal Edition #008
November, 2002.
Why Do We Love To Hate Them?
This month our feature article re-examines
the topic of spam. There have already been two articles on spam, published
in this Journal. In the previous articles it was noted that there seems to
be a considerable amount of antipathy directed at spammers. In fact the
degree of hostility seems to be out of all proportion to the offence. This
article suggest a possible reason for this antipathy.
Spamming in its' own right is basically impolite behaviour. Here are some
suggested rules of netiquette for the
socially inept.
Perl Scripts
Also if you are looking for sample perl scripts, you might want to
check the source code for the script
which generates page rankings for this site. If you have a GUI browser you
should see the the page rankings link in the right hand column.
There are also some perl scripts for Windows NT/2000 which create a clone of an Oracle database.

mother. And since mothers went online - spammers may not be able to count
on maternal affection. Why do we love to hate them? Some Reasons are
offered: Here.
