Is it me or are the Russian spammers getting lazy?

Niksgele say: Has found a site with a theme interesting you.

Niksgele say: I can recommend to visit to you a site on which there are many articles on this question.

Niksgele say: In it something is. Many thanks for the information, now I will know.

Niksgele say: In my opinion you are mistaken. I can defend the position. Write to me in PM, we will discuss.

He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates. That due to the incessant political crisis in this country and to avoid been kill

by his enemies I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose such as real estate or hotel management.

Please, I am honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways:

(2) To serve as a guardian of this fund since I am still a small girl:

Furthermore, Pls indicate your options towards assisting me as I believe that this transaction would be conclude within seven (7) days you signify your interest to assist me,

Anticipating hearing from you urgently.

Thanks and God bless.

I mentioned the Unreal Developer’s Kit a few posts ago; now they have released some HQ videos explaining everything you want to know about it (using the editor, etc.).  Very well done.

I always get an email everyday for this pos “antivirus” scam.  It’s sad because many windows people will fall for it and then get their box infected with it.  EDIT:  About time, Microsoft

I’ve been toying with the idea of getting rid of vista on my laptop and replacing it with linux for 30 days.  I’ve learned a lot the past year or so learning ubuntu but I’ve never felt like I could get rid of my windows install.  I am so tired of paying for this/that/the other stuff in windows while a version in linux is free.  I just installed U x64 on the desktop and that was fun just trying to get the thing working!   But I finally did and it seems to be happy now.  I’ve also installed U on my eee using the array.org kernel (seems much happier than it did with XP).

2,000 files later it might be done!
