Screensaver tackles spam websites Monday, 29 November, 2004, 12:14 GMT

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sites selling spam goods and services are being targeted

Net users are getting the chance to fight back against spam websites

Internet portal Lycos has made a screensaver that endlessly requests data from sites that sell the goods and services mentioned in spam e-mail.

Lycos hopes it will make the monthly bandwidth bills of spammers soar by keeping their servers running flat out.

The net firm estimates that if enough people sign up and download the tool, spammers could end up paying to send out terabytes of data. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4051553.stm
