I'm seeing massive amounts of spam on this group, is this just on my
newsserver or all around? It doesn't show up on any other newsgroups on

this
server. My guess is that a subscriber to rah has it's system infected with

a
spambot virus... Could everyone check/update their vurusscanner please?

Thanks,
Rob


First, make sure your e-mail return address is well spoofed, with more than
just writing spam in the middle of it.

I would venture a guess that someone (or you) is using e-bay, google groups,
or one of another million ways to get your address. It only has to be out
there once,..... then soon millions of spam lists will have your info on
them.

Best advise - filter, delete, ignore, or... change your e-mail address.
