I've received an email about firefox flicks from "Spread Firefox team" Immediately, I log into spreadfirefox.com to uncheck any checkboxes I might have accidentaly checked allowing them to spam me. Unfortunately, there are none. The 'unsubscribe' link in the mail is pointing to "mozilla.cmail1.com". How reassuring! There's no way to cancel my spreadfirefox account. (Or atleast I can't spot one from "My Account") Action Items: Let Gmail know this was spam, and blog about this hoping someone would care. nitin http://nitin.wlkr.net I know this will get me a lot of flak - but I'll still say it - spreadfirefox.com is now a spam site in my books.

Back and Forward are really zippy - faster than firefox Delete private data actually closes all-tabs! No adblock, of course.
