This is directed to anyone who can force these people to stop spamming

conversations relating to the subject of the newsgroup.  The spam
follows:

*******************************************************************

Every day the newsgroup has been receiving numerous (10 - 20) identical
postings.  This started at least a week ago.  This serves no purpose
other than to use up bandwidth.  One message posted once would have done
the job.  Perhaps this is a competitor trying to convince people not to
buy from this company?  In this case they should definately be stopped
and charges brought against them for fradulant advertising!
