Abuse is a simple program which will help you fight back spam.
It will "read" any e-mail header, go on-line and check NICs, open relay DBs and black-listed IP ranges to discover the address of the abuse-desk you should write to.
License: Freeware
Download security software: Abuse! 1.0.5.6
Developer: Developer
Abuse! is a useful security utility that has the mission to protect your computer.
Further it will tell you if the sender's IP address is an open relay or is blacklisted as a spam source.
Simply right click on a desired e-mail and Abuse will automatically extract headers and either print the relevant abuse-desks or directly e-mail them a letter of complaint (LART).
Abuse is still in a beta phase and some of the features we had planned have not yet been implemented (full caching system, integration with main e-mail clients, a more intuitive interface...), please bear with us while we work on improving the code.
What's New:
- -Minor tweaks to the options/settings display dialogs to reduce their
- overall length.
- -More tweaks to the abuse contact search.
- -More tweaks when locating the spamvertised Url.
- -Improve handling of KRNIC whois info,specifically the net range.
- -More tweaks to improve handling of IP ranges found in whois replies
- to prevent invalid 0-0 & 0-xxx range entries being added to Whois
- cache & Abuse Addies cache.
- -Added munge option to SMTP settings permiting user to identify email addresses in the
- larts to be replaced by:
