(Or naderexplore04.org)

You may have received spam email recently that appears to come from our
campaign, or be about our campaign -- perhaps the "From" and or
"Reply-to" addresses look like they are coming from VoteNader.org. Or
perhaps you have received a message that appears to come from an
individual (if the address is real, the real owner probably did not send
this email either) with suppressed recipients. Or maybe you received an
email that appeared to come from yourself promoting our site.

These messages are NOT from Nader for President 2004, and these email
tactics are NOT condoned by our campaign in any way.

UPDATE: Some of the latest forged emails have been made to appear to be
coming from naderexplore04.org. Again, we are not responsible for this
unfortunate abuse of email, and there is little in the technical sense
that we can do to prevent this as it has nothing to do with our actual
infrastructure. We are collecting information.

NOTE: The emails with malicious code (viruses, worms, etc.) often have
attachments. Our campaign will NEVER send attachments in our
announcement emails to you. Please be sure that you have anti-virus
software and have the latest updates available for your anti-virus
software.

Our hosting service has alerted us to say that Nader for President 2004
appears to be the target of what is called a "Joe Job." Such an event is
where a spammer forges email to make it appear to have come from some
other domain (such as ours -- or yourself). This is hard to prevent on
our end and part of the insecure nature of the email protocol in
general.

Members of our actual email list must request to receive email from us
(either through Ralph's signup sheets or subscribing during our
exploratory phase, or now on our campaign site). When one signs up for
email they must reply to a confirmation message before they receive our
list announcements.

Our public announcement emails come from "campaign@votenader.org,"
contain a "Paid for by Nader for President 2004" statement at the
bottom, and have "updates@lists.votenader.org" in the "To:" header.
Unfortunately, some of these indicators can be forged as well.

Most of the Spam that we have received complaints about appear to be
forged from email addresses not associated with votenader.org (often
forged to appear to be coming from government email addresses), and have
our website code embedded in the body of the email with hidden tags that
contain random words that work to subvert anti-spam software.

If you are on our lists, you can ALWAYS unsubscribe at ANY time by
following the instructions included at the end of our announcements. You
can also use our unsubscribe page using the email address you signed up
with.

If you are receiving this SPAM, we extend our apologies.

We will pursue the spammers to the full extent of the law.

kids". Those who ran toward the road had actually couldn?t find me but
they did not come back for a while.

One question remains :), if I am running downstairs and I am away from
them then how do I knew all this, how did I hear all this, actually when
I was unconscious and cops found me I told them very much the same story
:), no one told me to say all this, then why :)??

Jews & NASA does not want Muslims to pray Fujur

Assalam u?Alekum :)

When I was young, I used to hear when ever I went to pray to mosque.
That if you come to pray to mosque your shoes get stolen. And frankly
speaking there were times when some slaves of Jews or Jewish Muslims
would do the honor and steal the shoes. But that was not all it was
about, it was an indirect message to all the mice, slave race, if you
pray, your wife, your fiancé, your daughters will be raped forcibly, and
yes that used to happen to people too. In Muslim countries people are
living in invisible jail.

Now since the day I have been going to local mosque, I was gassed many
times, a few times Abu Omar gassed me with this biological weapon due to
which eyes outer skin starts to break apart completely it is very
painful. He gave the same biological weapons to some of the "Lord of the
ring" team members, when they came to Melbourne.

Now here people around me have told me that I can?t go to pray fujur
because Jews and their NASA does not want me to go to Fujur, and that is
why they give me biological weapons. People of the world they have made
Muslims and everyone else their slave, I do not think world belongs to
you, I will insha?Allah go to fujur tomorrow, even it means waking up
the whole night and I will make sure world finds out how wicked and
corrupt and inhuman liars you are.

A question for Amir Bulter A jew acting as Muslim

Assalam u?Alekum :)

There is another Jew who is acting as
