Sophos reveals latest spam relaying countries
Posted on 24 July 2006.

Experts at SophosLabs scanned all spam messages received in the company's
global network of spam traps, and have revealed that for the first time in
more than two years, the United States has failed to make inroads into its
spam-relaying problem. The US remains stuck at the top of the chart and is
the source of 23.2 percent of the world's spam. Its closest rivals are China
and South Korea,

Just more proof that USA is #1! yee haw, Take that China!

Now where can I get a list of those IP's to add to my blocked list ? ;-)
