Hi Jim, I've been getting the same numerous messages from these  
morons for weeks now. I figured out a way to filter these mails to  
the trash that really works. The key is that these ads are "gifs" and  
that's how they escape the junk filter. Set up a rule in mail to  
"send any attachment" that contains "gif", to, "move message to  
trash". Try it it really works.

Regards,

Joe
