If you have not seen the advert I am talking about that is because it had been canceled by
snowhare@xmission.xmission.com (eeper). Unfortunetly this was too late for it to be canceled 
on the mailing list. As is explained below, this type of spam is being posted using a 
security hole on the news.cc.utah.edu system. Please complain to postmaster@news.cc.utah.edu 
so that they fix this hole!

My next post will be related to the subject of this mailing list (for a change)

This spam was cancelled by me from 167 groups. This person is exploiting 
a huge security hole on the news.cc.utah.edu system which the admins at 
news.cc.utah.edu have refused to address except by trying to shift blame 
to others.

They have been aware of this security hole for over a year and a half and 
still have not acted to fix it - I suggest complaining to 
postmaster@news.cc.utah.edu if you object to this ongoing spam.
