They have also hit rec. craft. Beads. At the moment there is very little
bead posts going on there, much to my dismay.
I just remove them and sometimes kill file them.

Sorry to follow my own post but it looks as if I were removing the bead
posts. I meant the spam. Well what can I expect at 6.30 am and senior
moments. VBG

I wondered what you were all talking about until I went over to Google
Groups. Mozilla Thunderbird seems to do an excellent job of screening
out these things (but it occasionally drops real messages as well).
However, recently I had my laptop "fixed" by a local computer shop,
because I didn't think I had time to do it myself. Wrong move. It took
me longer to fix it my self after I got it back than it would have to
have cleaned up the hard drive myself, with lots of coaching from
various websites, that is. Anyway, I am having trouble getting
Thunderbird to work properly on that computer, so if I want to use it to
read these groups, I have to go through Google. What a mess. Much more
advertising than real messages. You all should probably complain to
your own ISP or newsreader about them letting these posts through. If
Thunderbird can stop them, so can the others.

Sorry, gotta correct myself here. Thunderbird is just the vehicle, it
is Motzarella which brings in the messages, and screens out the SPAM.
