    ...and about time too!

    A domain called McColo.com which hosts web services for spammers has finally been cut off by its ISP. As a result of this one action, the world spam load has apparently decreased by an amazing 75%!

    Let's hope no other ISP decides to adopt this repulsive orphan.

    I'm happy this happened because I have noticed that the spam in my gmail spam boxes has significantly reduced over the last few days. The only problem is that, this respite could be short lived because the spammers are probably looking for a new ISP.
