Spam-a-licious

According to POPFile (mentioned before) my personal e-mail spam rate is now up at 90.9% - yay! This article claims that spam is expected to reach 80% saturation by Q3 of 2004 - guess I'm still ahead of the curve then!

Speaking of spam, the "comments" feature on this site has been off for a while due to increasing amounts of "comment spam". The ability to comment on posts is now back in place, however I've implemented a comment moderation system, which means that all comments are placed in a "queue" before they are approved for the site. It just keeps the annoying (and sometimes obscene) spam comments from ever reaching these pages... that's all.

I started using the wonderful e-mail spam filter POPFile at home a few weeks ago... I would have estimated the percentage of "spam" e-mails I get was about 85% - but no, it's worse!:...
