The interesting part I find is this -
"Operation Spam Zombies," will begin by sending letters to over 3,000 ISPs
worldwide, instructing them on how to prevent customers' computers from
being compromised by spammers. These methods include: blocking port 25 that
is used for outgoing e-mail, applying rate-limiting controls for e-mail
relays, identifying potential zombie machines, and providing customers with
trojan-removal tools."
Does the FTC honestly think this is groud breaking information that the
ISP's don't already know?? This kind of stuff drives me crazy - such a
waste of money.
