If you have not seen the advert I am talking about that is because it had been canceled by
snowhare at 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 at 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 at news.cc.utah.edu if you object to this ongoing spam.
