Do try to keep up at the back, there :-) Yes, we're being flood-bombed. A few servers are filtering it, however (news.individual.net for one) so for a lot of us it's 'over'.

I'm with NTL and have had the same problem - I've reported the offender via Spamcop. His server seems free so they have clearly blocked the source so I'll use this for the time being. Might be worth the supscription cost. Alan |
