I thought Chess Informant was a legitimate business, so it >surprises me that they persist in spamming. I wouldn't know whether I had received it or not. I routinely trash ALL email from people I do not recognize. I may lose a few good ones that way, but . . . Incidentally, I recently discovered that it helps to disconnect from the internet BEFORE clicking on any new messages in my inbox. You would be surprised at how many spam messages try to force my computer to send them return mail. I refuse. No telling what information they are trying to get that way from my computer. Am I paranoid? Bob D.
