Windows XP >> Windows XP tips and tricks. I just do not understand why Microsoft would allow spammers to post on a
board that they sponsor on their server.
SURELY MS has a skill set to block this crap. Or maybe the spammers are
smarter than a MS programmer?

The next version of Windows? Windows piñata
Piñatas are made from easily breakable materials. a bright container generally
suspended on a rope from a tree branch or ceiling that is filled with candy
and toys and is used during celebrations. A succession of blindfolded,
stick-wielding children and some fun-loving adults will try to break the
piñata in order to collect the candy inside of it.

WHile Microsoft host a copy on the servers & present it as a forum this is actually a newsgroup &
cannot be blocked or censored,

That isn't true.

I don't think that you understand how Usenet works. I am posting to the
microsoft.public.windows.mediacenter newsgroup (copying to some others). Usenet has nothing at all
to do with Microsoft. Microsoft might issue a Cancel Message for a particular posting but no other
News Server is under any obligation to honour that cancel. In any case these are not moderated
newsgroups so it would be inapproporiate for anyone other than the original poster to issue a cancel
message. Check out the Usenet FAQ http://www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/cancel-faq/ & in particular the
FAQs on Cancel Messages http://www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/cancel-faq/

I don't think that you understand that many of us are accessing these
newsgroups on msnews.microsoft.com. These servers
(msnews.microsoft.com) belong to Microsoft and Microsoft can do as it
pleases with its servers. What goes on with other newswgroups servers
and Google and the likes is beyond Microsoft's control, but on their
servers they not only can remove messages and block posters, but they do
so on a daily basis, else if they didn't these groups would be polluted
like the rest of the usenet groups, like the ones in the Alt. hierarchy.
If anything they certainly do moderate it and any usenet group can be
moderated if the ones who set it up decide to moderate it, as a matter
of fact many usenet groups are moderated.

Kind of brings me back to my original concern.
Are the spam artists so good that even the experts at MS can't block them?
If true then we are at their mercy.
