  1. Re:Block email from Windows on Aggressive Botnet Activities Behind Spam Increase · · Score: 1

    Raising the score of suspects is definitely a good idea. Hmm, I can't see how emailing the postmaster will help. Now you will get spammed at postmaster. Perhaps a more robust solution for your particular personal situation is to have that webpage have a cookie that changes every so often and then you can ask the senders to include that cookie in the body of the message. Chances are that spammers aren't going to bother doing the research just to spam you. However this is a technical solution, which also creates a hassle for legitimate users, and it doesn't scale to others.

    Unfortunately ttul is correct. It'd have been so convenient to reject all windows-originating connections. Unfortunately a lot of businesses out there use exchange to send email...

  3. Re:As if PERL wasn't hard enough to read... on Asynchronous Programming for Spam Elimination · · Score: 1

    stable perl threads? you must be kidding...

    it works for basic light things, but if anything complex is used, like mod_perl, it segfaults all over and if it doesn't it takes dozens of seconds to start a new thread under heavily loaded machine (due to lack of CoW as you've mentioned, but even then I doubt it'd be much of help, since it'll still need to copy a lot of data)

    And yes, someone needs to work on fixing those and a TPF grant would be very helpful.

  4. how not to get devalued at google ranking on Google Antitrust Suit May Go Forward · · Score: 2, Informative
    Rather than sueing everybody, why not spend a little time complying with search engine requirements? Sometimes a very little tweak in your site can get your page ranking higher, and in reverse a little thing can get you banned completely. After reading this I've written two articles which others may find useful and improve the quality of the webcontent out there. May be if KinderStart follows those guidelines they could get their ranking back without any fights. Here they are:
    1. 12 Things to Do to Improve Your Site's Google Page Rank
      this article covers 12 techniques that will help raise your page rank and move your site to the top of the search hits.
    2. 12 Things NOT to Do to Improve Your Site's Google Page Rank
      this article covers 12 techniques that must NOT be used if you want your site's Google page rank to be high (and not to get banned)
    Enjoy!
