Hello; If you are running a website that offers free image hosting, than this is for you ! If
the image hosting script you are using is a bit poor, hackers can use this to upload their "php
shell" and be able to do modifications to your site !!! You might say this wouldn't
happen to you ! ... but it happened with me ... My website is mostly a familly web-site, so all
my familly checks it, and when the hackers acted ... i got humiliated /sad.gif"

QUOTE Using a case study of a e-mail I got, it's not really spam but its sort of. The
first rule is NEVER reply to spam, NEVER click the unsubscribe link and NEVER e-mail to the
unsubscribe address. These are simply underhand tactics to get 'active' e-mail addresses.
Some other tips to avoid getting spammed in the first place: 1) Never use your real e-mail
address in newsgroups, this is the best place to get picked up by a spam bot. Use something like
john-no-spam-at-i.hate.spam-btopenworld.com Then in your signature put remove -no-spam and i.ha...

All of my friends have been IM'ing me this virus - I haven't seen this under a topic so
I'm posting it. You'll receive an IM from someone with the wording similar to this "Hey

forward the message to everyone on your buddy list. I haven't asked my friends what else the
virus does, but I'm just letting you all know. This may not be a devastating virus, but
don't fall prey to these internet goofballs!!!...

Stopping SPAM and its effects ----------------------------------- SPAM or unsolicited mail usually
comes to your mailbox from 'anonymous' sources. They are most frequently as a result of you
giving out your address on a site. But your mail providers (usually) work very hard to stop these
kind of messages from clogging your limited() space. There aer many things about that, but we
won't get into those. The thing Yahoo is using right now is Yahoo's DomainKeys. Read more
about the technical details here. Here's the effects of this system... 1) Most o...

I was wondering if any of you guys knew of any good pop email clients. I recently signed up for a
pop client, but I was wondering what the best client was. People say Outlook is full of bugs and
freezes constantly. I am told that open source is the way to go. I'm not familiar with any open
source pop clients. If anyone has any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated. I am running
Windows XP. QUOTE Thanks, magical1492 No "sign - offs, please add it to your sig block

I was happily browsing the web so I decided to check my Yahoo! email. I got like 4 emails that
were bounced back by Mail-Daemon. Apparently, I had tried to send this spam mail to some MSN
groups!? It was bounced back to me because I had to be a member of that group to send emails.

BlueSecurity advertises itself as a method to counter-act spam, today I received an email, which
looks very suspicious (Which isnt from BlueSecurity btw). Has anyone received an email like this as
well? I already de-installed BlueSecurity ages ago because the program made my Firefox crash very
often, but emails like this make me scared, really scared. Seeing they can obtain my email because
I'm signed up for BlueSecurity, I wonder what spammers would and also could, do with it.

I have seen posts about what kind of messages are out there fooling members to give up private
information--especially when PayPal sent you one. Oh no! No way, PayPal address cannot be faked.
Wrong. I almost gave away my entire personal information about 3 years ago. And the fake messages
are getting better and better. Even the site that links to looks too real. So I decided to share
this with you, in hopes that no one from TRAP17 are suckered into giving up what is private
information. PS I know everyone knows this but let's spread the word and see how many mor...

Many people don't care about email account security and just go for a Hotmail account because
it's automatically MSN compatible or a Gmail account because it has lots of space. But out of
those of you who choose your email based on safetey and security, which client do you recommend?
There are tons out there. Personally, I use GMX.net, it's a German service with extremely high
security. They have a password meter to check your password for how easy or hard it might be to
guess, encouraging you to use upper and lower case letters along with numbers. They veri...

QUOTE A new scam by hackers has some people believing they are receiving an e-mail about a
critical update to Windows when in actuality they are installing a Trojan horse, Sophos said on
Friday. The e-mail directs victims to a fake version of the Windows Update site, where there are
links to download the malicious "patches." "The email uses the Microsoft branding and style so to
the casual observer it appears to be legitimate," Gregg Mastoras, Senior Security Analyst at Sophos,
told BetaNews. If users download the "patches," they are actually installing the Troj/DS...
