Title: OT - Help Kill A Spammer :)
Post by: Brent on Oct 26, 2004, 07:02:41 AM
I requested that the admin put this page up for us:

http://www.deltabravo.net/test/antispam.htm

It's called "SPAM Vampire". All you have to do is load the page in IE (won't work in FireFox, unfortunately) and let it run. Minimize it and let it go for an hour or two, or even overnight. :)

This works by making it economically unfeasable for a spammer to operate. Here's how:

What the page does is constantly reload selected images from spammer's websites. This gobbles up their bandwidth at a very high rate and at the end of the month they get a huge, huge, bill for all the excess bandwidth they consumed. LOL!

The spammer may get a bill for ten or twenty times what he made by spamming- and no one can stay in business under those conditions. :)

So, please click that link and let her rip! You can actually watch the numbers mount, and if each of you ran this thing for just 1 day (or overnight), this would *bury* the selected spammers a mile deep in bandwidth fees.  I will change the images occasionally to punish selected spammers, so you don't have to do anything except click the link. :)
