Business email security provider MessageLabs has issued a warning to Internet users not click on the "opt-out" link on spam emails, as the company said it had discovered yesterday a number of messages using this function to open a spam distribution point on the recipient's computer.
Dubbing it the "drag-and-drop jav*a*scr*pt exploit", MessageLabs said the scheme uses an Internet Explorer bug to "download an EXE file when the mouse is scrolled across the malicious domain page, allowing the machine to be turned into an open proxy that spammers can control".
MessageLabs said that by clicking on the "click here to remove" link the user is directed to a Web page that "triggers an attempt to download malicious code onto computers". The company adds that once spammers are loaded in the users PC they can upload new Trojans "at any time".

one thing i don't understand is why you'd keep sending the emails to someone who has no interest in them?
is it really just hoping that one day, he'll change his mind and buy something?

good idea. you'll probably get more people to click on 'remove me' than to click on the actual ad.Originally posted by charly

And answering your question, a 'spammer' sends out millions of emails every hour.. removing certain emails is just not an issue. But i (suspect) a remove list would offer better ratios as they will get opened far more. All surfers arnt webmasters, they buy crap from spam every minute.
Thats why spam will always be here, it makes a lot of money. And the harder the big companys make it, the more $ there is for the big boys who can still mail.
I dont think spam is good or support it in anyway. I alwasy deal with highly targeted lists with sale data, its not my business to spam.. they are just my views above thats all.Legit mailing and optin databases -

what's a 'remove list'? a list of emails (such as I described) where the person has clicked 'remove me'?Originally posted by SlutFinder

i'm not passing judgement. make your money how you want to make it. i'm just curious if it's a bad idea to click 'remove me'. i know nothing about spam.Comment

yeh i mean a list which in theory is meant as a list you run other lists by to remove all the people who have clicked remove in the past.Originally posted by stereolab

Well, think about it. The more times someone sees the same product, the more inclined they will be to purchase it. Also, you could obviously mail another product to them. Proof that it's an active email address is obviously going to make it worth more.Originally posted by psyko514

But yeah, remove links are abused so much that spam filters like Spam Assassin actually penalise mailers for terms like remove and unsubscribe in their mailings. Must be a bitch for legit mailers.26 + 6 = 1Comment

they dont need the remove me link to be clicked to know your account is active. Chances are you view your email with html on , and if you do they usually place a small image in the email that is encoded with your email in the image url. So the software will detect if you have viewed an image in the spam email ( i.e. you opened an email )
You can also use this method to track and locate a spammer. If you enocde the image url with an unused email and track that account you can usually track down whom uses/abuses that list.hatisblack at yahoo.comComment
