I used my flyswatter again yesterday on a "MAKE MONEY FAST" spam. It got zapped quickly, though.

Zap!

Thanks,

Hmm. I searched before posting and found that this one might be suitable to continue the thread rather than create a new one. If I did in fact post incorrectly then sorry for waking an old thread. That being said- I just got spammed from user himm66. I mean it actually came in from blackberryforums.com do not reply address which I've allowed on my filters to pass but it was an advertisement for cigarettes and stuff. Basically I just wanted to alert the mods about it or who ever takes care of these things. I do have it saved if you need it. Thanks
