Spam levels rising again

The spam honeymoon is over. Just 12 days after the shut-down of US-based rogue ISP, McColo, which led to spam levels plummeting around the world, the spam plague is gaining momentum again.

I wonder where spam goes to when it goes on holiday? maybe Hawaii, or Mauritius?

Darn, it was nice while it lasted.

We all knew it couldn't last forever, but I guess we hoped so. However, hopefully the momentum gained by killing McColo will continue and more of the buggers can be shut down.

If they can cut off the head of the botnet's, the zombies below may not continue, as they get no commands. If they go peer to peer controlled though, then there is a major problem.
