"Pszemol" wrote in message ... "jthread" wrote in message news ![]() My trusty killfile is smoking. Really? Thas would be amazing if it really worked. The spammer changes e-mail addres in every post. He's a wile one. I might be slow, but do not get it... How do you setup your killfile when all these messages are sent from unique e-mail adresses? you can't but it get rid of the post huh? How can it get rid of the post? Based on WHAT? Computer program works on RULES. What is the rule? In the other post you stated you had to remove the spam manually - so why can you say it get rid of anything? |

One good thing about Spambrave, right-off-the-bat. is it lets you group all of our friends post and id them as spam. Takes them all right off. The ver. I d/l is the lite. The full version will report them as spam abuse too. I like it already. Spam abuse is useless in war against regular anoying spam when spam is not containing any offensive/illegal words. Waste of time. |

You are all doomed forever. hahahahahaha All I did was group all his posts together. Deleted everyone in the blink of an eye. There is always a way. teehee. Who cares if he posts if you can delete them all at once? BFD haha. Go ahead and rack your brains. You'll figure it out. Thanks for all the help! You guys are funny!!! Peace. Jim T |

"George Patterson" wrote in message news:hx9Zi.62$jH2.31@trnddc01... He's not changing addresses. Three last spam posts where signed with three different e-mail addresses: "Elmo" , , "Abdul Al Sistani" Yes, but the program is doing that. There's no need for the "poster" do actually do anything. You're correct that each massage has a different return address, but "he" isn't actually changing the address with each post. It's an automated process. And which newsreader has advanced killfile recognizing "nonsense in the subject line"? None that I know of. That's the entire point of the program. The original purpose of the 'bot was to slip emails with spyware past readers' filters. If you get curious about one of the mails and open it up, the spyware gets activated. Usually the message gets sent by mail to several thousand people. The return address gets changed each time it's sent. What this guy has done is to generate multiple messages and have them sent here. I've read that corporations have blocking programs that can stop this sort of thing, but I don't know that to be true, much less know how it works. I do know that some people have mail systems that simply block anything from strange email addresses, but I don't know of any newsreader that has that feature. George Patterson If you torture the data long enough, eventually it will confess to anything. |

What difference does it make from my point of view? On most of these posts the poster opted for them to be removed after a very short time scale. I basically, unsubcribed, and then resubsribed to the group - the trash was gone :-)....I had to re-read the interesting stuff though but that wasn't too much of a trauma - lol Gill |

With thunderbird, I created a clean list that
highlights with the tag code, those that are normal members on this newsgroup, so that the trash posts are easily ignored. Wayne Sallee wrote on 11/9/2007 1:22 PM: I see the idiots are trying to run the asylum again !! Regards, Fishnut. |
