I would love to send them a nice little present that would mess up there computers for a while...oh well just wishful thinking lol Yeah, bummer. The USENET has a large amount of spam coming through Google these days, from all over the world (think globalism). You can see that if you view header information. Filtering out all posts from Google would remove 90% of the spam and a some regular posters. A very (and maybe the only) useful filter is Ignore Subthread (to ignore a thread branch). You can use the same filter to ignore a whole thread or ignore any branch in a thread. I purchased Agent 4 but haven't used it yet because I like Xnews so much. Agent is supposed to have Ignore Subthread. Other readers do too I think. Used to be AOL users would mess up that filter but they aren't allowed to post through AOL anymore so that's no problem. It works for both content and author filtering. Good luck and have fun. |

I would love to send them a nice little present that would mess up there computers for a while...oh well just wishful thinking lol Search Google Groups for the various previous discussions here on using NewsProxy (aka Nfilter) to remove most of the junk. And take a look at my sig (below) for instructions on how to get a copy. I haven't updated the filters (yet) to remove the 'maple story' idiots, but that's coming soon. I'll post a notice when that's available. -- Regards, Doug Miller (alphageek-at-milmac-dot-com) Get a copy of my NEW AND IMPROVED TrollFilter for NewsProxy/Nfilter by sending email to autoresponder at filterinfo-at-milmac-dot-com You must use your REAL email address to get a response.
