Undeclared War
Well it looks like either some person or group that sends out all those unwanted e-mails that we get is going on the attack against organizations that try to stop spam. This story talks about how the spammers have released a new virus that is set up to create a denial of service attack on anti-spammers so to cripple there efforts to stop spam. The spammers that are suspected of doing this are a criminal organization that also traffics in stolen credit cards so for them to do more illegal activities, like release a virus, is not a surprise. So the war of the spam has begun and who knows where it will end but it will affect us all.
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948) (attributed)
