Re: Not so nice JS intruding on a computer without ones knowledge

Sorry Nancy, you misunderstand.

I am only referring to the claim, 

"As far as I am aware, FCC regulations require that all ISPs have an email address
of abuse@ or at the very least postmaster@ to receive and deal with complaints of
this nature."

After checking the FCC web site, including several searches, I failed to find any
information the FCC regulates abuse@ or Postmaster@ web addresses.  The FCC
generally leaves the Internet alone.  I asked the individual making the claim to
please provide a verifible source for the claim.  I doubt there is one.  Hence, my
comment it is probably an urban legend.
