| I am trying to start a new group on Yahoo. | For all of us shade-tree mechanics. | It WILL BE MODERATED, so you will not be exposed to all the SPAM crap. | Please apply to join and spread the word. You mean like the spam you posted ? Or is the attachments posted in a non-vinaries group ? -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html Multi-AV - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp |

| I didn't see an attachment - only a link. | I wouldn't consider this to be spam unless the guy is making money from | the site. It's on-topic for this group. Attachments were in previous, "long range casting..." posts. Making money is not the sole cause to be deemed spam. Since he is telling others to go to another site, he is spamming said site. Granted some may say that it being a one shot post does not rise to the level of spam. However because he posted "...so you will not be exposed to all the SPAM crap" I pointed out he is doing what would not be allowed in the Yahoo Groups. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html Multi-AV - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp |

Making money is a huge part of spam. He is looking for people to join a simple discussion group to share information about boat repair where commercial posts that are off topic can be deleted. I don't see it as a malicious attack on this group and I only saw his post in two fishing/boating groups. D |

You might want to look at other free discussion groups. Yahoo is a bit outdated. Check this out... http://proboards.com/ D |
