Two American blokes have just been fined millions of dollars for sending out over 700,000 spam emails. Hooray! I don’t know about you, but I get lots of “snail mail” Spam too. I snapped the chap above promenading very slowly indeed along the promenade a few days ago.

As well as being annoying, Spam emails can also infect your computer with a virus and trash all your data. So, this seems like a good time to remind everyone:

Back up your data regularly!

My cousin Shaun lost his hard disk and all of his photographs and other data recently. How well would you cope if that happened to you? I’d also recommend using a firewall and antivirus software.

Cheers, Tom.
