I sympathise, but don't blame technology. You are always
going to find minorities of low-lifes who get their jollies from
upsetting other people. The best response is to ignore them
completely (often difficult, I know). [Possibly even better is 
to make a big joke out of it and make the whacko look
totally ridiculous - that really tends to get them where they
live.]

People who do this sort of thing face-to-face often finish
up with bruises and other miscellaneous contusions for 
their efforts. They either reform, or get to like being 
black-and-blue.  Unfortunately the Internet does not provide
for such corrective actions.

Cheer up though, Aoighlaigh. Not *all* netizens are bad.
