hey, guys, i just posted in a thread in the "meet-ups" section where you had all posted your e-mail addys as an MSN id... i just wanted to warn you all -- because i have seen this happen in other forums i belong to -- it's really not a good idea to put your full e-mail in a public forum in the ABCD@website.com format.
bots are constantly roaming public sites in an attempt to collect information, and i don't think any of you really want to be inundated with spam!
my suggestion is, rather than ABCD@website.com, try writing your address with spaces, or spelling out the words "at" and "dot"
for ex: ABCD_at_website_dot_com, or ABCD-at-website-dot-com
