This is from Mike Healon.  I'm putting it here in hopes that more people will see it.


Just a little something to keep in mind, going into the new year.

   1. Thou shalt not buy merchandise found in pop-up ads or spam.
   2. Thou shalt not post thy email address, phone number, address or social security number to the internet, nor shalt thou post anyone else's.
   3. Thou shalt not forget to update thy Windows every second Tuesday.
   4. Thou shalt not connect to the internet without installing an antivirus, nor shalt thou begin a scan without checking for updates.
   5. Thou shalt not connect to the internet without installing a firewall.
   6. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's credit card number, nor his bank routing number, nor his social security number.
   7. Thou shalt not enter thy credit card number without seeing the tiny padlock icon on thy status bar.
   8. Thou shalt not reply to the email from the Nigerian banker.
   9. Thou shalt not forward chain letters to thy friends and family.
  10. Thou shalt not use "password" as thy password, nor thy birthday, nor thy children's names.

In a perfect world, spammers would get caught, go to jail, and share a cell with many men who have enlarged something, taken Viagra and are looking for a new relationship.
