Date: Sun, 4 Apr 2004 12:00:02 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1158 Sender: owner-usna-net@usna-net.org A special message from your Moderators... Jim Pedan mentioned Midshipman Email Addresses and the need to PROTECT your Mid's email address from abuse in a note to our USNA-Plebe list. Since this is so important a topic, we should spend a bit more time on the subject... PROTECTING AN EMAIL ADDRESS FROM SPAM... (aka Unsolicited Commercial Email or Junk Email.) Your #1 weapon against SPAM is prevention. If you practice a bit of common sense and SAFE computing, yours and your Mid's email addresses can remain private and safe from SPAM for a long time. (This is only possible with a brand new email address.) 1.) First of all, obtain an address from an Internet Service Provider (ISP) who does not sell the new address to third parties. (It doesn't matter if they call them partners, affiliates or third parties, anyone who knows about your new address can use it to send you SPAM.) Our experience is that MOST FREE web based email services (especially ones like HOTMAIL) will immediately provide your brand new email address to SPAM sources. To test this statement, we signed up for a brand new email address at each of the popular web based services, Hotmail, Yahoo, MSN, and Lycos. We then deliberately did not use the address for first 24 hours. We didn't send or receive any email. We didn't give the new address to anyone for that time. All of these services EXCEPT LYCOS had tons of SPAM waiting for us when we accessed our brand new account the next day. The Lycos account has never gotten any spam in over a year's time. Conclusion: All of the other services immediately sold our brand new address to SPAM sources and we started receiving SPAM from their partners, affiliates and others, including P0RN sites. It doesn't matter how good their SPAM and Junk email "Filters" are, if they sell your address to outsiders, what good is their service in the first place??? 2.) Next, it's vitally important that YOU don't compromise your or your Mid's new address. How? Simple. Pretend it's an old fashioned UNLISTED telephone number. Don't give it to anyone!! For the most part, if you intend to keep your new email address private you have to assume that everyone (except your closest friends) who asks you for your email address will almost certainly provide (sell, give, or trade) it to a third party. Once that happens, its "out there" and it will pass from spammer to spammer at the speed of light. Within minutes you can be on literally hundreds of spam lists for everything from Vitamins to "Italian rolex" watches. Unless the company or service has a prominently posted Privacy Policy ( AND you can trust them), you should assume that they will compromise your address if you give it to them. Some places which MAY compromise your address include innocent (and legitimate) web sites like... YOUR Bank and Utilities Companies, News Services and Newsletters of all kinds, Credit Rating Services, Product "Owner" Registrations, Electronic Postcard / Greeting card services, Employment Services, On-Line Auctions and other Shopping Services Also included in this group are any number of web sites which require you to "Sign Up" or "Subscribe" or become a "Member" in order to access some or all of their web site. This includes various PHOTO viewing/sharing web sites like ImageStation. Any place that asks for your email address wants it FOR A REASON. While some will not sell it, most will share it with their "Partners" or "Affiliates." Any time you "share" your or your Mid's email address, you should just say to yourself, "Do I care if these people share the address with spammers?" If the answer is that you don't want the address to receive spam, then DON'T PROVIDE IT. It's that simple. Even giving your address to a close relative who then uses it to send YOU an electronic postcard, compromises it by giving it to the postcard web site who in turn, may sell it or otherwise share it with any number of spam sources. 3.) What about an address that is already getting spam? Can you stop it? In a word, No. You can slow it down. You can install software and filters that will reject most of it but you can never get rid of it entirely. The spammers are constantly thinking up new ways to send it to you to get past your road blocks. The best way to stop SPAM is to not let it get started in the first place. 4.) NEVER ASK TO BE TAKEN OFF A SPAMMER"S MAILING LIST. In a lot of cases, spammers use computers to send an email to every email address possible at a given ISP. They send one to a@AOL.com and then to b@AOL.com and then to c@AOL.com, etc. Computers are really, really good at doing this in very little time. The spammer sends out millions upon millions of these emails every hour hoping that, strictly by coincidence, they will happen upon a real email address. A lot of these emails have a note at the bottom telling you to click here to unsubscribe or send a request to be removed from their list. NEVER DO THIS!!!! Up until you do, the spammer has no way to know if that email address his computer made up, is real or not. Once you respond to such an email, you confirm that he has your REAL email address. That REAL address is worth hundreds of times what a list of unconfirmed addresses is worth. It is a trick that these spammers use to verify their lists. Don't confirm that they have your REAL address. DON'T RESPOND! Just delete the message and move on. 5.) Lastly, if you must use some of these services, get a free disposable email address at Hotmail and use it exclusively for all those things which "require" an email address. When it starts getting too much junk mail or SPAM, scrap it and get a new one. If your CURRENT email address is polluted, ask your ISP for a new, different address, and only tell those people who absolutely need to know, what the new address is. NEVER send a note to Everyone in Your Address Book telling them what your new address is unless you are certain that they ALL NEED IT!!!!! If you clicked on those unsubscribe links to tell spammers to take you off their list, there is a better than 50/50 chance that the spammer's address is in your address book and sending a note to everyone in your address book will tell the spammer YOUR NEW ADDRESS! You can change the default setting in My AOL and MicroSoft Outlook/Outlook Express Options to NOT include everyone to whom you send an email in your address book. A really good idea. 6.) All of this is designed to keep yours and your Mid's email address from receiving a ton of unsolicited email. Rest assured that USNA-Net has been keeping YOUR email address private for over six years. We will never provide ANY of your information to anyone else under any circumstances. Our Privacy Policy is fully explained on our Fine Print page on our web site at www.USNA.org. So if you feel compelled to send an electronic post card or view photos on the web, use our web site. We guarantee that no one will ever have access to your email address or personal information. We pride ourselves on being 100% private to the very best of our ability. Go Navy.

We have so far oversold our ads for the book, however I have found room to sell 1/8 page ads for anyone that wants them. I have also created ads on the DVD that we are selling. I believe that this should be an acceptable solution for anyone that would still like to place an ad. We are currently sorting through all the people that did not receive a space. The Lucky Bag will leave open sales of DVD ads and 1/8 page ads as long as possible. I would also like to mention that the class panoramic picture has not sold very well. I am concerned as this is a great gift for 1/c and we are only selling it till the end of June. We will not be stocking any extra picture and there will be no opportunity in the future to order this print. It can be ordered at http://www.tickets.com/browseother.cgi?minpid=5239254 or by calling Midshipman Welfare Fund at 410-293-8497 The cost is about 35 dollars and includes shipping and handling. The third order of business with I believe will be of interest is the sales of our DVD. On this DVD we include everything about commissioning week and even include inside footage that can only be obtained through MIDS. This included the spirit spots from all the home football games and the Army/Navy Game. It will also include Herndon, Sea Trials, and All of Commissioning week, as well as the entire graduation. The cost of this DVD is $15.00 +$6.00 for shipping and handling. I would appreciate you forwarding this on to the parents if possible. Thank you for your help. Very Respectfully, MIDN 1/C Collier C.

The testing in New Carrollton, MD, is expected to begin by the end of May [Commissioning Week] and last 60 to 90 days, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) spokesman Darren Kayser said April 14. Kayser said the TSA is looking at a range of technologies and hasn't decided how many kinds of equipment to test or in what combination. An important question is how quickly machines can check people and luggage, he told the Associated Press. The site was chosen because it presents challenges likely to be faced in screening railway passengers for weapons or explosives. The platform is open to the elements and serves a mix of people, including rush hour commuters and longer distance passengers, Kayser said. The agency intends to screen Amtrak riders and is in talks with the Maryland Transit Administration, which operates the MARC commuter rail system, about participating. *** USNA-Net post by: "Mike Zets" ================================================ Pass on our USNA-Net tradition to the next Class.

It's getting worse again. What's that you ask? Why, unsolicited email mail with attachments. Could it be that you've ignored our repeated warnings and opened an infected attachment? Would you know an infected attachment if you saw one? Have you ever clicked on an attachment? No? How about all the others in your household? Would you swear an oath that no one EVER opened an attachment to an email? Even when you weren't home? Even the one with the pretty girl's picture in it??? There have to be several dozen USNA-Net members who ARE infected right now from the number of viruses I receive as Moderator each day. It just takes a moment of inattention and you're infected. New versions of viruses are coming out everyday... faster than your AntiVirus Software may be able to update itself. And that's providing you actually have AV software installed and running at all times. If you don't, you're almost guaranteed to be infected. How do I know, because I get dozens and dozens of infected emails every day!!! From Members!!! EVERY DAY!! Why don't I just write to them and tell them they're infected? Because the new viruses fake the return address on infected email so you can't tell who sent it to you. All I can do is beg you to buy and install AntiVirus Software on your computer right now. If you can't afford a commercial version, there is FREE AV Software available at www.grisoft.com. Download it today and scan your machine. Here's the direct link... http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_dwnl_free.php Just Click and download it today. There is NO WAY for the average user to know they're infected from just looking at your machine or trying to find a file or two. There are thousands of different viruses out there and each of them does something different to your computer. Some damage it instantly, others work quietly behind the scenes for weeks or months before they destroy your hard drive. In the meantime, they all send out copies of themselves to EVERYONE in your address book. If you don't know FOR CERTAIN that you're not infected, you owe it to yourself to check. There have to be several dozen USNA-Net members who are infected right now. IS IT YOU ???? Don't be fooled. Email arrives with only a line or two of text. It says, check this file or here it is or something like that. You click on the attachment and ZAP! You're infected. As I asked... IS IT YOU ???? It could be. How would you know? Mike Zets Westlake, OH mzets@USNA-Net.org Moderator - USNA-Net Listservers SysOp - www.USNA-Net.org PS. If you saw the email today which purported to be from me, you also noticed that our server removed the infected attachment before it sent it out to the list. It did NOT come from my computer, but it DID come from an infected member's machine and used my return email address to access the lists. Don't worry. Our server CANNOT forward any attachment or Rich Text Email so there is NO WAY for you to get an infection directly from our service. We've made sure of that BUT... You could receive an infection from another trusted person which comes to you directly from their computer. Please be careful. It only takes a moment of forgetfulness to damage your computer. *** USNA-Net post by: "Mike Zets" ================================================ Pass on our USNA-Net tradition to the next Class.

Navy fans can also get Navy sports results, press releases and newspaper articles e-mailed to them by signing up for the Navy Sports Information e-mail list. To sign up for this service please send an e-mail to Scott Strasemeier at: sstrasem@usna.edu with the words subscribe in the subject line. -----------------------------End Message------------------ Note from your USNA-Net Moderators: this Navy Sports Information List is made available by the Academy - it is not associated with USNA-Net. You will receive emails about most of the sports on the Yard, Since Saturday morning I have received 38 posts to this receive only listservice. The posts were on football, lacrosse, sailing, wrestling, baseball, crew, golf and tennis. If Sports is something you are interested in - and you find Naval Academy sports even more compelling - this is just for you!

Just a quick note about SPAM filters and Security Settings... About once a week or so, a member decides to install spam filtering software or tweak the settings on their existing email security settings to NOT accept email from people they don't know. That might stop spam but it also stops email from all USNA-Net lists and a bunch of others from whom they really want to continue receiving email. You can't possibly know everyone who belongs to our organization and by stopping mail from people you don't know, you are essentially unsubscribing from our service. Please don't use this method to stop spam if you still want to receive messages from our lists. If you want to stop spam, change your email address and this time keep the new address really private. Don't share it with anyone and don't use it for anything except our lists and communicating with select, trusted individuals. Your Internet Service Provider will supply you with a brand new address at no charge. All you have to do is ask for a new address. If you set your email program to NOT accept mail from addresses you don't know, you will automatically be removed from our lists after about two weeks and there is no way for us to tell you about this except to call the phone number you supplied when you joined. This is a costly and time consuming process for your Moderators. Please help us to keep you remain on our lists. Don't use this method to stop unwanted email. It also stops mail from every other source you've forgotten about, like old friends and relatives who have changed addresses and are trying to tell you about the change. If you only accept email from their old address, you'll never receive another message from them again. It's just not a good idea. Go Navy...

Sandi and I heard from Ross McKenzie today. It seems he and his new edition of Brief Points were featured in the Baltimore Sun today. Here's the link... http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/education/bal-ar.briefpoints28apr28,0,5930798.story If the above link happens to wrap to a second line, be sure to cut and paste all of the link into your browser. Ross wanted you all to know that he is grateful for our collective help as Parents in getting the revised edition into print. He's added over 40 pages to the new edition, mostly in the "Glossary of Mid-speak" at the back of the book. This is an invaluable book for those who are just learning all the lingo that is so wide-spread in our lives as Parents of Midshipmen. He said he will be at the Academy for a book signing on I-Day and the day after (June 30th & July 1st). And for those who want an advanced copy of the book, you can purchase it in our On-line Bookstore by clicking on the "Must Read Books" graphic in the right-most column of our main page at www.USNA.org. Using that link will produce a small commission for USNA-Net from Amazon on all items purchased through that link. It helps offset our annual operating costs. Good luck to Ross and the new, revised edition of the "USNA Bible for Parents and Family" otherwise known as "Brief Points." We're looking forward to seeing him again on I-Day. It's been two years in the making. We can't wait to get our hands on it in another few days. Go Navy....
