Will wonders never cease???

AOL's been upgrading it's anti-spam and spam-reporting options and after a month of using it I'm stunned at how effective it is. It's about damned time.

It doesn't block popups from https, secure server, sites because it assumes the popup has an ecommerce application.

programs will start working ssl popups into their rotations.

Yeah you gotta hand it to them they did a really great job but its gotta be said that Yahoo and Hotmail have pretty much followed suit and Yahoo is doing well on that front now too.

The days of regular spam are numbered. Creative spam..... now thats another thing altogether.

Yeh it sure does. Some asswipe is using one of my mainstream domains to spam AOL again and I'm get bounced mail up the ass.

Good, I'm so sick of all those fucking 13 - 18 year old AOL spammers who think they're elite entrepreneurs.
