So in the past 3 minutes, there have been all these 'spoilers' about the book pictures posted online, and most of us have figured out that this book is fake. The page numbers don't match up, and it's poorly written, and the design looks flawed. I'm just getting annoyed with this. Anyone else just insanely annoyed with the level of spam? I can't get to any of the threads I've been keeping tabs on with all this nonsense.

i know haw to contain the virus to only infect one computer at a time so it will only do damage to the programmer but i am not going to do that because it is not very nice

They use proxy websites like C Tunnel. if you are banned from a cite you just go to one of these proxy websites and type in the website you want to go to and it somehow gets over the ban.
