Spam Filters simply do not work!
SpamRival is a Spam Blocker and is the only 100% effective solution to
block spam
Spam, also known as junk email or unsolicited commercial email (UCE),
is flooding the Internet. Most spam is commercial advertising, often
for dubious products, get-rich-quick schemes, financial solicitations,
quasi-legal services and most alarming... pornography.
Spam is a growing problem for email users, and many solutions have been
proposed. The most common
proposal is to use a SPAM FILTER. But spam filters simply do not work.
To understand why SPAM FILTERS do not work, you first have to
understand what a SPAM FILTER is and how a SPAM BLOCKER is different
than a SPAM FILTER.
In its simplest form, a SPAM FILTER is a mechanism for classifying a
message as either spam or not spam. Most Spam Filters use a set of
rules or keywords to determine if a message is spam or
not. Example: If an email message contains one of the words that your
SPAM FILTER is looking
for, that message is marked as spam.
Other SPAM FILTERS examine each message (after it has already arrived
on your machine) looking
for "spam-markers" such as common spam subjects, known spammer
addresses, known mail forwarding machines, or simply common spam
phrases. If any of these conditions are met, the message is
classified as spam.
The problem with SPAM FILTERS is that spam is a constantly evolving
process, therefore these tests may (and probably will) have to change
frequently. Spammers are in the business of beating
SPAM FILTERS. They want to get their message to you no matter what. So
when a new piece of SPAM FILTERING software gets released, Spammers
quickly get to work to find ways around the rules that software
contains.
SPAM FILTERS used by some of the most popular email providers are
failing to prevent junkmail attacks, with one service offering as low
as two per cent protection.
A study by US-based eTesting labs trialled 15 email providers over ten
consecutive days, and found no service was completely spam-proof.
AT&T WorldNet scored highest, blocking 73 per cent of junk mail.
America Online ranked second with a 40 per cent protection rate, and
Yahoo! mail came third, blocking 36 per cent of spam.
Other popular services surveyed included Excite, Lycos and Hotmail. All
three were found to block less than one third of spam mail sent to them.
SpamRival on the other hand blocks 100% of all
unsolicted email messages!
How can SpamRival block 100% of spam and unsolicited email when so many
others failed? The answer
is quite simply actually... SpamRival is a SPAM BLOCKER, not a SPAM
FILTER.
SpamRival uses unique technology to 100% eradicate all spam and prevent
it from ever reaching
your inbox! When using SpamRival to stop spam, the first time someone
sends you an email message SpamRival will automatically send them a
challenge. When the person receives the challenge, they will have to
click a link and thereby "authenticate" themselves.
Since only humans can "authenticate" themselves, spam will never get
through to your inbox!
Once authenticated, senders do not have to re-authenticate in the
future.
Since spamming programs cannot answer the challenge and authenicate
themselves, their message
never reaches your inbox!
It's just that simple... SPAM FILTERS do not
work... SpamRival does!
