- These logs are not only a useful tool for web site statistics and maintenance, but in tracking spambots as well.
- According to wikipedia, spam is the abuse of electronic messaging systems to indiscriminately send unsolicited bulk messages.
- A computer that has been implanted with open proxy software is called a zombie and can form part of a botnet used by spammers.
- An open proxy is a third-party computer that has been configured to serve spammers by untraceably relaying their mail, hosting, or guarding their websites, or performing other tasks.
- On-network filters offer the advantage that the user does not have to download messages identified as spam to his own computer, but it requires that the user periodically inspect the trapped or detained mail to report it or to release "false positives" (nonspam messages erroneously identified as spam).
- Spammers usually build software spiders and unleash them through the internet to crawl through websites looking for "mailto:" html tags which are used when linking email addresses together.
- The spiders collect all of these email addresses for the spammer to spread his junk email messages across all emails that are within their possession.
- Spam spiders are getting more sophisticated so even if some one tries to conceal their email addresses through more methods such as "john at johndoe dot com", there are well built crawlers that will pick these addresses up.
- If a spammer can set up his own authoritative name servers for his website domains, he can use these to rapidly change the apparent address of his websites among large botnets of compromised home computers.
- There are ways on how you can get rid of spam and prevent it from coming to your email inbox.
