Very cute, but irresponsible. I really don't care to look "younger, 
healthier, sexier," but as a direct result of your handiwork, I got 
the first spam I've received since leaving Mindspring for Bellsouth 5 
months ago. Use your powers for good instead of evil and help keep 
the fleshy headed mutants in the Forbidden Zone. As it stands, this 
imbecile's no-name ISP has not confirmed that his account has been 
nuked yet and I am not at all happy. I would encourage all concerned 
to use more discretion in offering help to probable parasites.
