Default Any Ideas on Turning off the Spammer?

I'm seeing a huge number of spam postings in this group. I'm sure they are
from a bot, but since the address keeps switching, I don't know how to block
the messages in OE.

Suggestions?


Just filter out any messages cross-posted to sci.crypt. This will not
work with Outlook Express 6 on Windows 98/SE, however. That particular
version of OE will attempt to download all 900,000 back-logged messages
on sci.crypt before filtering them out.

I wonder what the sporger has against sci.crypt?
