On a whim I signed up for the 'theglobe' online service (you know, chat
rooms and such).  I now get 3 or 4 spams a day from their SUPPORT address.
Not only that, but they emailed me my password TWICE, unencrypted, after
signing up, and do not use a secure server when you sign up (at least not
for the free accounts).  I'd recommend staying away from these people as
they seem more interested in getting emails to sell to spammers (and
spamming you themselves) than they do in FIXING any of this stuff - I
emailed their support address and told them the problems, and I didn't get
*any* response except more unrelated spam the next day...
