   I just got this from Commission Junction, one of the companies that I 
use to put ads on the MSBC site. Badly formatted unrequested spam from a 
company I do business with, sponsored by Microsoft. I especially like the 
part where it says "At MSN?, we think you deserve a better, faster, more 
reliable connection to the Internet." Notice the question mark - not even 
their own marketing people believe that BS anymore.
