I think I bragged too much about not getting much spam. I must have 
offended the spam gods because now the pace has picked up quite a bit. It 
seems like the majority are offering penile enlargement or viagra. Is it 
possible for one's wife to order spam? :-)

But getting to my real questions- I'm getting a fair amount of spam posts 
in which the title is almost unreadable junk like the following:

ignftion scale dycyanu q usk ailiv

Can anyone tell me what causes that sort of thing?

And the second question involves something that my firewall software 
seems to protect me from, but I don't know what it means and why I need 
the protection.

Now and then I get a notice that I have been the subject of a "ping 
flooding" attack. As directed by my preferences, the intruder is put in a 
stop list so he can't do it again (I guess). Could someone explain what 
ping flooding is, and why I should care?

Thanks

Saying that being pro-war is "supporting our troops" is like saying that 
arson is supporting our firefighters.
