We all know you like MS, Ameesh, but you'll just have to put up with the fact that not everybody believes the way you think they should. :disgust:

5MB limit. Cool, another e-mail address I can use for spam.

<-- uses Crazy Browser and doesn't care if anyone else does.

I didn't know about this, and I really don't care.

So there's an account set up for me. I don't use it, didn't sign up for it, and could really care less. I'll just ignore it forever and pretend like it's not really there.

I hate every browser except IE. :)

Anyway, I'm just glad that I have another 5MB online storage and another email address to collect the spam away from my main ones. I use an aim handle through Trillian. I only have AIM installed on my box so that the girlfriend doesn't have to reconfigure Trillian. I'm a MS Fanboy. :)

does it sign you up for spam itself and then automatically delete mail you want like hotmail does?

When you long-time users of AIM logged in, did you see anything in your inbox? No. In theory, the spam should have been piling up like it does with hotmail. It hasn't. That's because you don't get spam from netscape.net unless you sign up for it or are dumb enough to give out your address.

Nice thread crap. Shouldn't you get banned for thread crapping? So don't complain. :) It's called "grace"
