Since my earlier post, I've checked the News.Individual.Net website, and
they are pretty clear that they _don't_ divulge information except when
required to by law. *But* there's a link to "Firstgate" - the company they
use for processing credit card payments.... Does that name ring a bell? I've
now deleted the spam I got today, but I'm sure that Firstgate's name was in
the disclaimer at the bottom.
