I had three more of the 50% clearance messages in my mail box this morning. I did a little poking around and have found the main links in them are rerouted to a site called "Canadian Health&Care Mall" and <http://www.qualiferdlog.com>. There is a Spamwiki entry on the site:
<http://spamtrackers.eu/wiki/index.php?title=Canadian_Health%26Care_Mall> The spams are cycling through a bunch of throwaway domain names. All of the domain names in the spam I received have already been shut down to client use, but they still point to the site. qualiferdlog.com is hosted in China at an IP address held by KLS-Cafe/ Kulesi Game center. This is all too bad, because I had planned to contact their provider or the provider's connector and complain that their mail was interfering with my business. I love contacting the providers of the advertisers who hire these spam companies and shut down the pay sites, but it looks like in this case the advertiser is the spammer and there may be no provider to threaten/complain to. (Shutting down the pay sites doesn't stop the spam, but it's satisfying to cut off their revenue.) Maybe whoever is cutting internet cables out around Egypt needs to move to China. In the meantime, I hope CTM can fix whatever is causing the hang up in mails like these, or can get Apple to fix the issue if it is at that level. -- Michael Lewis Off Balance Productions [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.offbalance.com
