legislation is becoming popular, one result is that spammers aren't
wasting time with just spamming mortgage offers and ways to buy

ground, they're
moving more towards malicious attack spam, including phishing
attacks and trojan horse attacks. In other words, if they're going to
break the law with spam, they figure they might as well go all out.

Report from the spam/anti-spam summit
04/09/2004 04:05 PMDanny O'Brien has written up one of the first summits between spammers
and spam-fighters for the Guardian. It's a great piece.
Surprisingly, no such shootings occur. It's oddly intimate, watching
the spammers and the anti-spammers mill around each other like this.
It feels like a temporary ceasefire in a vicious war that to most of
us seems to be a stalemate...
Over the past year, though, a series of meetings arranged by a trusted
figure in the American anti-spam community, Anne Mitchell, have been
slowly bringing the two sides together. These mini-conferences, held
under the banner of the Institute for Spam and Internet Public Policy,
have mostly been between the highest-ranking ISPs - MSN, AOL - and
commercial email marketers of the most squeaky clean kind. Initially
in secret, these days the meetings are more public.

Blacklisted Comment Spammers Attack
Legitimate Domain
Blacklisted Comment Spammers Attack
Legitimate Domain
07/07/2004 02:28 PMUPDATED
It appears that the comment spammers may be polluting new postings
with legitimate domains -- including this one -- in order to cause
trouble for people who are running programs to cut down on comment
spam.
In this case, they put weblog.siliconvalley.com and mercurynews.com
URLs into spams containing their porn and casino links (or whatever it
was the anti-spam program had already flagged), and the comment
blacklist software picked our URLs up and offered to ban them. We
missed this, and the result was that I couldn't post comments here
briefly, and some of my old comments got erased in the meantime.
I'm betting this is going on widely -- and that the spammers are
hoping to cause such disruption with
MT
Blacklist, which we're using, and other such programs as to force
us to stop using them.
I'd rather shut the comments down entirely than see these slimeballs
get away with this.
For now we're watching our banned-domain list more carefully. (We just
discovered that washingtonpost.com, cnn.com and abcnews.go.com, among
other news sites, also made it into our master list. They'll work
now.)
Let me know in an e-mail if your comment is rejected from a legitimate
domain, and I'll ask our tech folks to take a look.
The bad guys are indifferent to the damage they cause. Sorry it may be
affecting some of you.
How to get falsely blacklisted for
running an open spam relay
How to get falsely blacklisted for
running an open spam relay
07/06/2004 08:08 AMIt's easy. Just sign up with an ISP that issues dynamic IP addresses.
That's how I got on several email "black hole" lists meant to stop
spam, even though I don't spam and my system has never operated as an
open relay. If you use an ISP that doesn't give you a stable IP
address, you may be on one or more spam blacklists, too -- and you may
not necessarily know it. Then comes the fun part: Getting off those
lists can be a lot harder than getting on them.

Microsoft co-operates with email rivals
06/28/2004 10:07 AMIN A RARE mood of co-operation, software giant Microsoft has blended
its e-mail sender authentication scheme with a competing standard. The
aim is to get a standard that can defeat spam by forcing emails to
reveal the IP address they are sent from. If adopted by the
Engineering Task Force (IETF) Sender ID would serve as an e-mail
authentication system that verifies the message actually originated
with the purported address.

would be available later, they have been released as Beta's and can be
downloaded today. I am not sure how I missed that but the downloads
and programs are being provided for Free during
BETA. They are supposedly going to be very inexpensive when
officaly released. There are even several Microsoft blogs that are
being hosted by the Express team to give more insight.
For those of you that missed my earlier comments. The express
versions of these products are aimed at the beginner programmer or
what Microsoft has dubbed the nonprofessional. In my opinion this is a
very very smart move by Microsoft and may even encourage people like
me who have never written a single line of code to buy some books and
give it a roll.
I am really excited about SQL Server 2005 Express as that is a
product I have always wanted to mess around with. Scobleizer has a
