Black Frog takes up Blue Frog spam challenge - vnunet.com

Black Frog takes up Blue Frog spam challenge - vnunet.com

As some of you may know, as of last week, Blue Security has shut down their anti-spam program (i.e. Blue Frog). Unfortunately, one spammer, calling himself "PharmaMaster," launched a DDoS attack on Blue Security which result in their site going offline as well as several other blog sites. But all is not lost. Despite its closing, Blue Frog was very effective. Some proactive people have banded together to launch another Blue Frog-like anti-spam program. But, this time they are taking measures to prevent attacks like the one that closed down Blue Frog.
