Somehow, a spammer using webtv is not where I'd look for up-to-date advice.
Does that mean if I used a yahoo email or google email account it
would make my advice more up-to-date? Did you follow the link? Do you
have any idea what this link is about?
Sure, it is a spam posting in a discussion group...
Because your post is the lure, and if it turns people away, then
that post has failed.
It is standard spammer technique to not say much in a message. Gee,
I dismiss posts if they have a URL and the poster can't say anything
literate in the post, it doesn't even matter whether it's spam or not.
These are discussion newsgroups, and if you can't add to the discussion,
then your URL has no relevance.
