...eyes of many Internet regulars, it was a provocation so bald-faced and deliberate that it could not be ignored. And all over the world, Internet users responded spontaneously by answering the Spammers with angry electronic- mail messages called "flames." Within minutes, the flames -- filled with unprintable epithets -- began pouring into Canter and Siegel's Internet mailbox, first by the dozen, then by the hundreds, then by the thousands. A user in Australia sent in 1,000 phony requests for information every day. A 16-year-old threatened to visit the couple's "crappy law firm" and "burn...

...Kojak fans, if the USA network has any say. Starting in March, Pulp Fiction's VING RHAMES will resurrect the role of the dapper detective played by TELLY SAVALAS. Rhames, 43, says he never watched the '70s show. "Growing up in Harlem, running into the house to see a bald white guy arrest black people didn't interest me," Rhames says. "I was running in to watch Good Times." Rhames' Kojak will be "edgier, a Prince of the City type," he says.
