Instantiations newsletter

I'm trying to figure how Instantiations did subscribe me (and some
fellows smalltalkers) to a Java newsletter, when the only thing I did is
register to download some goodies and documentation of *Smalltalk* more
than a year ago.
I received the following mail (snipped):
-- BEGIN OF MAIL
Subject: Last Chance to Register: Bring Java Back to the Desktop
From: Instantiations Inc. <newsletter@instantiations.com>
To: <me>
*Eclipse RCP Webcast
**LIVE From Times Square
Wednesday May 31, 2006
2:00 - 3:00 PM EDT
Registration Closes Tuesday
-- END OF MAIL
How to believe them when they say they will improve VAST? :-(
I wish it is some kind of joke, but it isn't.

I got the same invitation, but I do have a license for their Swing-Designer
product. Since I am not really a Java programmer, I'd need a pretty darn
good reason to want to watch their Java event. The invitation I received
didn't explain what the event is really about, so why would I set aside the
time to watch? I replied to them and made this point.
