| 457194 | 2006-05-23 11:47:00 | I have just installed 'Spamfighter' onto outlook express latest version and find surprise surprise I am getting more spam than ever before?? I used to get 10 or 12 but now it is more like 60 to 80 every day! Should I uninstall the programme and do it manually, (tiresome lol) Or is this what I can expect now days and just live with it. Regards to the team. |

And blacklist a whole ISP, or domain. You definitely wont get anymore spam from the same place again. Or whitelist mates emails. So they'll come thru. |

Regards to the team. The Spamfighter software was o succesfull that spamers made a massive DOS attack and found a way to identify some of the users. This has forced the Spamfighter people to cease operating sadly. :horrified "The spammer also unleashed a torrent of spam targeted to a subset of Blue Security users, which the spammer had likely gotten by scrubbing an e-mail list and then comparing the old list with the new list. Any addresses removed from the old list could be identified as Blue Security users." For the rest of the article go here. www.wired.com |
