The reason for G-Lock SpamCombat popularity is that it kills 99.5% of spam andviruses before they even get to the Inbox. In fact, the program does not evendownload unwanted correspondence by deleting it on the server directly. To achievethis astonishing efficiency and accuracy, G-Lock SpamCombat uses all known anti-spammeasures  Whitelist, Blacklist, and the Bayesian filter as well as new approachesin fighting against spam - HTML Validator and DNSBL filters.
While white and black lists are very common, unfortunately these are passivesolutions that canÂ't protect e-mail recipients from future spam and virus attacks ifinitiated from different e-mail addresses. HTML Validator and DNSBL filters can.This first tool allows previewing questionable HTML messages with no picturesdownloaded and no hidden scripts or codes executed. DNSBL filter compares senders'IP addresses against lists of known spam databases. This technique is especiallyeffective when spam senders try using valid return e-mail addresses from respectablebusinesses.
Bayes ian filter is a name for a complex mathematical message content analyzingalgorithm that is based on the self-learning principle. This algorithm analyzesmessages that are marked as  good and  bad . After that the program can analyze anunknown message and mark it as spam (or not) with 99.5% accuracy. Unlike otheranti-spam solutions, G-Lock SpamCombat never confuses opt-in HTML newslettermessages with HTML spam for Viagra.
