Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam ANTI-spam, it's ANTI-spam!

This sounds like a pretty cool development in the war against being spammed. If I had a high-speed modem, I'd probably run the fuck out of this.

I just got an email from the university network admins, informing all users that running this little diddy probably illegal and at least harmful for net.....hence anyone using it will be permanently banned from accessing the university network.

And please remember: DDoS attacks have brought the internet to a near-standstill in the past. Many companies and public services rely on the internet to do their business.
The reason spammers are truly dangerous rather than annoying is that they use up bandwidth to such an extend that experts predict one day, they will crush the entire web.
So, using up even more bandwidth to try and stop them, which it most likely won't, will only accelerate this process.

So much for that.

The spammers are duking it out......it's a WAR gentlemen! Huzzah!

Just deserves, I'll say....not only willing to be destructive in order to make something else that is destructive go away, also dumb enough to open attachments.
