Hello people,

This is off-topic, but I think it's interesting:

For those of you who have to bear with spam (me included), there's a little hope.

Mark, developer and webmaster of AnalogX.com, is coding a freeware filter for spam. And from what people are saying, it seems that it's really innovative and effective.

If you want to read about it, go here:

Or use your favourite news-reader and subscribe to those groups in the following server:

Ciao.

Since this forum is for "Announcements, advice, random banter, unrelated discussion, et cetera.", you are not off-topic.

So, if you have any "off-topic messages" post them here.

I never much cared for AnalogX's stuff. Sure, some of it is at least partially useful, but he doesn't release source for anything and he almost never updates the site anymore. There was a two-year period when everything remained STATIC.
The other thing I hate about him is that he constantly promotes his shit on TechTV. Any real techie knows that TechTV is 95% fluff. "I deleted my C:\WINDOWS folder and now I can't load my computer. What should I do, Screen Savers?" *snigger*

Yes, it’s my fault.
