md16185,

I have to disagree.....Proxy Servers are out there for people who can't sure the web sites they are searching for.....usually, users in big office or big corporations have limited browsing access (Administrative policy and so on ) so for them the ways around the browsing issue is to use the proxy server...on the other hand proxy server owners make money by people posting advertisement on their site.


Email spamming is completely different issue all-together. Email spammers are very knowledgeable people....they search for vulnerable computer on line which has the SMTP relay enabled......that's how they use their own computer to send email out to the unsuspected victim's computer and then victim's computer will send it out.....in almost all the email spam cases....spam comes from a vulnerable computer.


Cheers
