Hmmm. I mustn't have the Hiijack product. I don't see a hijack.cfg file.

Make sure you are running the latest version of Declude 4.12.05 it has some
improvements with the Hijack as well as make sure you use the HIJADDR  ON is
used in the hijack.cfg

Now NINE.  Four different domains.  The originating IP's are all foreign -
and lots of them.  In fact, they are changing spoofed IP's after just a few
messages, so Declude hijack isn't working as well as HAMR, since it is IP
based, but it has pegged 2 of the 9 while HAMR has done its thing on all
nine so far.  So, while I'm suggesting that clients run independent scans
just as general good practice, I don't suspect infected customer computers.
I am certainly advising that that password is compromised and that if it is
used for other accounts, those accounts need to be changed as well and
urging them to not use the same password for everything, but, as you are all
quite well aware, people are very resistant to that idea.  They don't get
that making it easy for themselves also makes it easy for the bad guys.

Sometimes the problem is that a user's computer is infected by a virus which
then has access to the mail client in which case the password is irrelevant
to the conversation.

We are seeing a 3 to 4 fold increase in spam in the last months and a few
hijacked accounts, almost one a day, 

where they seem to magically know the password.

Someone suggested I'ts because they have hacked Linked-in, adobe, target
and other database in recent

months. People have to use different passwords for every system!

We have had EIGHT hijacked accounts in the last two days.  For us, that's a
great many.  Imail HAMR and Declude hijack have been doing their jobs, for
which I am very grateful.  Is anyone else seeing an increase in hijacked
accounts the last couple days, or are they just picking on us?
