Don't talk wet!!!

I've never heard such a load of adolescent bunkum!!

The spam is caused by harvester bots *not* by cookies. A newsgroup
can't and doesn't generate cookies as any 5 year old knows. Why do
you think I use a spam trap address????

Spam is generated by dictionary attacks.

Erasing cookies won't stop the harvest bots because they don't go for
cookies. They go for any email address anywhere on any site.

I don't allow cookies on my PC without specific permission and they
are erased immediately I leave a site.
