I know this is probably just a waste of bandwidth but I need to vent. I have had spam problems in the past and after installing Spamihilator and using it for quite a while I have actually seen an overall decrease in the amount of spam I get on a daily basis, not to mention the filter is kick ass and catches over 99% of what does come my way.
now to my problem, I was down to about 15-20 per day until 3 days ago when all hell broke loose. I have not signed up for anything new, nor have I given out my e-mail address to get put on this "new spam" list.
1st screenshot here is of the spam filters spam stats for the last 30 days, you can see this huge jump in spam, when all my problems started.
See the nasty spike
2nd image here is the actual filter in action, it leaves all the spam on the server then will delete it at an interval you set (I have it at 3 days so every 3 days it will delete spam that is still on the server) I include this one so you can get some sort of an idea this crap I am getting, and see if any of you are having the same problems or seen this type of spam before.
I get this stuff literally every single time I check my mail, I can check it and 30 seconds later have 20 more spam mails get caught by the filter. I love the filter and the program works great, none of it has gotten through to me, but the spammers are relentless and I hope none of you get hit by this stuff.
If you wanna check out the program itself it sits on your computer and works between the mail server and your mail client, leaving all spam on the mail server so it never even gets to your machine to worry about a virus or bad links etc.

Has anyone seen spam like this before? I am used to the viagra and horse sex ads but this stuff is just jumble and annoying as hell because I get so much of it. I don't want anyone to think this is just my ad pushing for spamihilator, but the program really does work great, I just want some kind of a resolution to this damn spam.
