Sorry if this has already been posted (I couldn’t find it)
I just read an interesting idea to take the SPAM war to the SPAMmers. Blue Security, a security firm, began distributing a free beta program that makes your computer a part of a community of computers that works to cripple Web sites run by SPAMmers. Much like a distributed computing effort: it works by building up a member list and having all the members complain at once to a specific SPAM site .
I felt this is a good idea, I think there maybe some other members who feel it’s worth a look. The article I read was called “Bringing Spammers to Their Knees” it’s by PC World and you can check it out here: http://pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,121841,00.asp
The home page of the security firm that wants to get the SPAMmers is www.bluesecurity.com.
