| A few months ago, SpamOnion started a new procedure to improve upon its ability to detect and block email based phishing attacks and various scams. The results have been fantastic. In the past 30 days, we have blocked over 500,000 phishing attacks, scams and image based scams.
Please read on for more details....

SpamOnion already makes use of the ClamAV anti-virus software to detect and block known viruses and other malware. Recently, the good people at SaneSecurity (unaffiliated with SaNE, Inc) started providing signatures that detect known phishing attacks and other scams.
<p?
In December 2006 we started using these signatures in test mode and was happy with the results. In January 2007 we put them into full production and so far have had zero false positives. Besides stopping many malicious phishing attacks, we have also increased our ability to block many image based attacks which are notoriously hard to detect.
We hope our customers are as happy about these results as we are and please know that we are always adjusting and improving our software to keep the Internet a cleaner, safer place to do business.
