Actually, you probably have without realizing
it.  If you ever enter an online contest,
fill out a membership registration, or even
awnser a survey, and just once, forget to
uncheck the "Yes, I would like to hear from
you and your affiliates" (or some veriation
there of), you are opted into every mailing
list that company, and their parterners, and
the people who pay them for your name and
email address has to offer.  Which is, quite
a lot.

Also, a quick note, if you're a member of
EZsweeps, this is why you're reciving spam.
The 'robo hound' sweeps do not uncheck those
boxes, so for every sweep you enter, every
day you enter, that's another sign up on the
list.
