Written on Friday, May 09, 2008 by Fatal Dose
And this is the 30th birthday of spam messages that overrule the inboxes worldwide. The first one was sent by Arpanet, the precursor of internet by a salesperson. Now they have even cracked CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart)
And now a new spam bot has arrived stating to be from Yahoo Customer care asking for personal details. Yahoo! Has confirmed that it has nothing to do with this threat. Now spammers are accounting for 30% of the mails sent.
Here is a link of University of Wisconsinat Madison which would be helpful in keeping these spam laden bots away from your PC.
