Globally, junk email or spam has grown, at times exponentially, to reach over 100 billion messages a day in April 2008. This may surprise some users because the amount of received spam has decreased, mostly thanks to better filtering methods. Still, the cost of processing and removing this data is eventually borne by users as internet providers pass it on. We have an array

Greetings from a rather wet Cape Town. August 2008 has kept us on our toes. First off, we were let down badly by the company we'd partnered with for internet bandwidth. Not only were they not giving us what we were being billed for, but once we'd proven to them that their service was not up to par (in fact our throughput was around 50% of what we were being billed for), we were told "your problem
