A dragon and knight live on an island. This island has seven poisoned wells, numbered 1 to 7. If you drink from a well, you can only save yourself by drinking from a higher numbered well. Well 7 is located at the top of a high mountain, so only the dragon can reach it.
One day they decide that the island isn't big enough for the two of them, and they have a duel. Each of them brings a glass of water to the duel, they exchange glasses, and drink. After the duel, the knight lives and the dragon dies.
Why did the knight live? Why did the dragon die?

Rise of the Spam Zombies. 'Untraceable' [The Register]
Pressed by increasingly effective anti-spam efforts, senders of unsolicited commercial e-mail are resorting to outright criminality in their efforts to conceal the source of their ill-sent missives, using Trojan horses to turn the computers of innocent netizens into secret spam zombies.
So it may be techincally impossible to trace the spam, although it seems to me there should be a way somehow. But you can trace it in another way, from the actual spam content. The purpose of spam is to make money, in order to make money there has to be a transfer of money. That is what needs to be traced. And since they are now using illigal means (hyjacking a computer) to send the spam, you can use legal channels to get rid of the spammer. There is obviosly problems with this, spammers being in other countries and what-not, but it can be done.
