Mike, I am using your LearnKey Course and your book for my A+ training, I am about ready to take the test, and must say I am enjoying the course tremendously. I have learned so much by using you course. I am also planning on taking the Network+ Course after I pass the A+ exam. I have also been using newsgroups to help me learn thigs I did not know before. I had a question for you. There is a tremendous amount of Spam circulating anymore and I have noticed alot of spam on this list. I think all of it comes from the just a very few people and most of it originates from two sources that I have been able to find--I know that IP Spoofing can make spam look like it is coming from one place when in reality it is coming from another. The vast majority showed the Ip numbers that are assigned to AOL and a place called Genuity, based out of Woburn Mass. All of the mail also showed the name of a Usenet service in Belgium. I THINK--not 100% sure, because there is always room for error--but I think the headers would show that out. I was curious as to your position on it, and what steps you think could be taken to help stem this tide. Keep up the good work and I love the course. You're great!
