I think it's a good thing Microsoft is going after spammers - who cares if they loose the money (or their freedom, heh) they earned from sending you an email. Best Wishes, Blake L.

It makes one wonder if an entity with as deep pockets and adept legal staff might actually make an impact on spammers, or if they are simply tilting at windmills.
Either way, it's a good thing. It takes resources away from Micr0$0ft's other legal pursuits which can't possibly be a bad thing. It might actually have an impact on spammers (which also can't possibly be a bad thing). For once, I see this as a win-win proposition.
