Maybe it's because I disable scripts by default. You'd be amazed to find that

Get rich fast. Have a flame. Purchase your own Dell laptop burning kit. Now
half price at Asda's. The kit includes an envolope, an address book with
contact details for specialised-field lawyers, and some recommended text.
