If you want to do something about it, contact the maintainers of all free newsreaders to insert the blink and the latest gimmicks for future versions by default, set an expiry time of 60 days for all binaries or even sources so that the fight against the evil Wintelscape can proceed. Guess it was doomed to fail. Better put the annoying Content Type into your killfile or even escape all posts from Netscape and Microsoft software, so you have the illusion of a usenet without Winscape.
