Anti Spam

 

Lately the number of spam mails in my hotmail is increasing. I should say, I have done every thing needed to avoid the attack by junk mail senders. 

  • I used a 10 letters long username with one of them is a dot.
  • I used my own domain rather than those like hotmail.com and live.com .
  • I never use this address register website or other service.
  • I never show the address in text format online to avoid mail address collectors, instead you could see I use the image on the right side of this page to show it.

However, it seems someone finally find way to find it! I don’t know whether they start steal mail address from MSN or hired someone to look for these mail address logo images.

For the second way, I don’t think I could do anything. I put the address in the logo so that I could communicate with others. I don’t plan to hide myself for the reason of spam. Maybe the only way is if nobody responses to the spams, they will disappear. But it is very hard to ask everyone to do this.

For the first, I also doubt I could anything. But at least I could ask my friends, like you, not to use these services of "Enter you MSN username and password, and we will find your friends who use the service." What a wonderful service! So you entered your password, and they steal all the address of your friends, and send them junks at your name. So, friends, please

DO NOT GIVE YOUR IM/E-MAIL PASSWORD TO ANY WEBSITE!!!!
