Laptop Computer In the old days, spammers got their addresses mainly from
Newsgroups - if you didn't post to Newsgroups, you were
reasonably safe. But they're now using a much more
efficient method to build their lists - email harvesters.
You searched for information on battery and laptop computer. Your new compaq laptop battery comes in a discharged condition and must be charged before use (refer to your computer manual for charging instructions).

Desktop Computer Email harvesters are robots that roam the Internet
collecting email addresses from web pages. Examples are
EmailSiphon, Cherry Picker, Web Weasel, Web Bandit and
Email Wolf, to name just a few.
Notebooks How can you protect yourself from email harvesters?
Lenovo By 'munging' (mung = 'mash until no good') or cloaking your
email address.
Hard Drive There are many ways of munging your address - the easiest
technique is to use ASCII code for the punctuation in your
email address (instead of symbols).
Travelstar For the colon after mailto use : and for the @ symbol
use @ and for the period use . . With this method,
your email address would become:
Gateway mailto:yourname@yourdomain.com
Laptop Parts but it will display as:
Software mailto:yourname@yourdomain.com
Hard Drives
Your email address will appear exactly as it did before,
and it will still be 'clickable', but email harvesters will
ignore it and move on.
Electronics There are also JavaScript's that you can insert into your
web page that will make your email address visible to
humans but invisible to harvesting programs. Here's one
that works very well:

How To Fight Spam
-----------------------------
Desktop Pc The most important thing is never, ever, reply to spam.
Desktop Computers Most spam contains an innocent-looking 'remove me' email
address. Do not use it. Here's why:
Think Pad Spammers typically buy a CD containing a million or so
email addresses, but they have no idea how many of those
addresses are active. So before beginning their marketing
campaign in earnest, they send out a 'test message' to the
entire list.
Repair The test message contains an email address for removing
yourself. When you reply to that address, it confirms to
the spammer that your address is active and therefore worth
spamming.
Data Recovery Worse still, the spammer may be distilling from that CD a
list of confirmed active addresses that he will then sell
to another spammer.
Cisco The key to dealing with spam is to report it to a 3rd
party: (1) the affiliate program that the spammer is
advertising, (2) the spammer's web host, or (3) the ISP the
spammer used to connect to the Internet.
Keyboard When you report spam to a 3rd party, remember to be polite
- they didn't send the spam and they're probably just as
anti-spam as you are.
Monitor (1) Reporting to Affiliate Programs
Desktop Many spammers are affiliates advertising someone else's
products or services. So look for a website address that
contains an affiliate link, something like this:
www.affiliateprogramdomain/841526
Infosys Then just send an email to the affiliate program
(abuse@affiliateprogramdomain.com), informing them that you
are receiving spam from one of their affiliates.
Refurbished Laptops Most affiliate programs have zero tolerance for spamming
and will remove an affiliate spammer without warning.
Wipro Now, affiliate spammers don't want you to see their
affiliate link, so many of them send their email as HTML.
All you see in the message are the words 'Click Here and
Order Now'.
Lap Top But in your browser just click on 'View Source Code' and
search for the letters 'http'. That will take you to the
spammer's affiliate link.
Refurbished (2) Reporting to Web Hosts
Memory If the spam doesn't contain an affiliate link, it's likely
that it is coming from the owner of the domain name. In
that case you'll have to report it to the spammer's web
host or their ISP.
Intel To make a report to the spammer's web host just go to
Whois, the directory of registered domain names:
http://www.netsol.com/cgi-bin/whois/whois
As400 Type in the spammer's domain (the website address that
appears in the spam) together with the extension (.com,
.org, .net etc).
Averatec The host for that domain will usually be listed as the
Technical Contact in the Whois record and there will be an
email address for contacting them.
Hardware (3) Reporting to ISPs
Dual Xeon To report a spammer to his Internet Service Provider,
you'll have to look at the spam's 'extended headers'.
Storage Extended headers show the servers that the message passed
through in order to get to you. The instructions for
viewing extended headers will vary depending on what email
client you are using.
Seagate => In Pegasus Mail, open the offending message and then
right-click and choose 'Show raw message data'.
Computer Sales => In Eudora Light, click on 'Tools' in the top menu
bar, and then 'Options', and then select the
checkbox option that says 'Show all headers (even
the ugly ones)' and click OK.
Computer Hardware => In Outlook Express, open the offending message,
select 'Properties' from the File menu and then
click the 'Details' tab.
Printers Reading and understanding extended headers is quite a
detailed subject. Here's an excellent free tutorial on how
to decipher extended headers:
http://www.doughnut.demon.co.uk/SpamTracking101.html
Technology As an alternative to these reporting techniques, you could
use a web-based spam reporting service such as SpamCop
(www.spamcop.net). SpamCop deciphers the spam's message
headers and traces the mail back to its source.
