Privacy, Security, Encryption McColo Corp, an internet service provider that has been confirmed to be the provider of choice to a rogue's gallery of unsavory clients, has been cut off by its backbone providers, cutting the world's total volume of spam by as much as 75%. Sadly, these people will undoubtedly be able to find other service eventually. But enjoy the respite while it lasts.

My gmail spam folder has dropped to about 1/4 of the total spam... that's still a lot of spam. In two days the box went from 0 to 50 messages which isn't bad at all - I rarely use that account too. But I have also noticed that spamsieve is not working as hard too for my other accounts. ;)
