compuwiz1, is your account old? did you know they put in a new section in your profile that says (send out your name/zip code) and if its an old account, when they implement it is checked "on" by default? if so, then nm...

Sorry to go off topic (yes I can access mine). I must rant about this, though. How can I have my regular ISP, get almost no spam, but yet my hotmail account get's enough spam to put me over my storage limit, each and everyday. I think MS actively provides this info to spammers, and I think MS get's revenue from this practice. My practice is to quickly scan the email, then dump it all. :|

Wow and I thought I got a lot of spam with my Hotmail account. You must get ungodly amounts of spam if it's enough to max your limit every day. :Q
