Yea there are sooooooooooo many people out there with infected machines that don't have a clue at all.
They just think their machines are running slow for some other reason. Dummy heads! :(
Because they leave them on 24/7 connected they really crank out the spam, phishing, etc too! :?

I sent an e-mail off to Comcast because all these recent spammers are still coming from them (mostly east coast) I can't believe their Internet Security is such crap. Chris.

What other ISP's are folks using, just curious? I guess on a good note it's easy to find the Comcast spammers. :!:

Not that that is good really, but you know where they are coming from, at least. Plus you can contact Comcast and ride them about it,

in fact I'll contact them as well. Maybe if we pull together they'll do something? :?:

SPAMMERS HALL OF SHAME.

Bastages!! :banghead: :Arrgghh: :dizzy:

Makes me think of the Post Office, and how they Love to Wrap important MAIL with-in Junk Mail. I have a Box for Junk mail, a

sigh to the Mail Carrier to PLEASE not wrap my Mail with Junk Mail. But they don't care. I'm calling those Pricks tomorrow.

I mean I've lost Money, all kinds of important documents that way. Toady of Course I really look through the Junk mail for important letters.

IMO, I should not have too. I understand Junk Mail is keeping Ground USA mail going, I don't really want the stuff, but I do understand they

pays the bills. Or a Good chuck of it. Bulk mailings. So I except that, if only they could separate the junk form the REAL mail, I'd

be a Happy Camper. :mrgreen: BTW the USA Post service is in the red 7 billion. :read: this tear, so far. So you'd think, they'd take a little effort

to insure we get our REAL MAIL.

The average American receives 41 pounds of junk mail per year. Not only does junk mail clog up our mailboxes, it also wreaks havoc on the environment. Nearly half of the junk mail received annually (44 percent) ends up in a landfill. In addition, nearly $320 million in local tax money is used to dispose of junk mail, and more than 100 million trees are used to create pulpwood for paper products. While the United States Postal Service does not have a one-stop method for reducing junk mail, there are many ways to reduce the amount you receive.

When I look at any joined Member's information, there is an Admin function called "WHOIS" that tells me the ISP and the host server's IP that you all have.

Comcast says it's not their fault, they try and educate their subscribers about Trojans and Spy Ware and Virus' but it up to the subscriber to keep their PC clean. They did appreciate the "heads up" tho. Chris.

Here is the short list from Monday's Purge of Inactive Members:

"Abrapseburb, sleftCrerDrew, plafsrv, plafthree, plaffive, plafsix, plafseven, Evessenonib, plafde, opyanovozka, Shervesters, orbirmviala, arrosyelisy, plafserv, HOOWTHOURIGAG, hemLiedge, Lerewtrungatt, videoskachat788"

Notice the series of "plaf....." names? All from infected PC's with .ru IP addresses. So lack of good anti virus protection is truly world wide. :? Chris.

This is really amazing. Since Josh updated to the latest phpBB version, there are zero new "Inactive Users". Kudos to my web master! Chris.
