Neowin Becoming Unusable


Recommended Posts

-relaying mail is not allowed

-could be a bad server setup but we never had this before on this server just the last one or two weeks.

-a lot of mail is spam or bogus virus alerts. Most however are forum /thread tracking emails.

I will investigate this more. Don't have a lot of time though :p

Redmak do you have a open mail server? so i mean epople might be using your servers to send mail out..

another thing might be taht bogus people are targeting spam towards you guys. That happened to me, some russian people were spamming our server for about a month. I am saying about 500 - 2000 e-mails DAY that were just spam!

I'm having major issues viewing the forum right now, is this virus still hitting it or something? I'm not getting server busy messages but the pages just simply take ages to load.

I got it earlier today ... first time I've seen it since this whole mess started ... it said I was a guest too...

Yeah - all of those baord message things will say you're a guest. Don't worry - when you refresh it you'll be logged in ok.

Yeah. I really don't want to install Antivirus software because it slows down my computer, but I've been getting messages saying I sent viruses and junk to them and the related ****. :angry:

*Looks in closet to find Norton Antivirus :whistle:*
