Noticed a typo in this. I meant to say the more of us should download the scr to help Lycos get this off the ground. I don't think we should let the spammers set a precedant where no one will actively do anything to really slow them down. Spam is getting out of hand and it's costing us all. The businesses that benefit from spam should pay this bill one way or the other.

If the spammers succeed in shutting Lycos down then I fear that few would join in to help out. If this is their response then I think this justifies helping Lycos even if it's "the wrong thing to do".

I think as was reported earlier they are being DDoS'd. The spam gangs certainly control enough zombie machines to flood Lycos's site to death.
