Spammers are getting more and more sophisticated, and one ofthe tricks that is gaining ground is writing spam text in an image. Since spamfilters cannot "read" text in images and therefore cannot block such messages,spammers have been freely able to spread their messages about drugs and cheap loans,etc. But not any more.

SPAMfighter launched a revolutionary filter today that can stop these annoyingimage-based spam messages.

The technology took six months to develop, and is extremely effective. When aSPAMfighter user reports a spam message containing an image, the image is analysedand a "DNA" identifier  a unique profile of the image  is sent to the SPAMfighterServer, which checks to see whether other users have reported the same image asspam. If so, the message containing the image is blocked for all other SPAMfighterusers.

"We are very proud to have solved a problem that is causing great difficulty for allour competitors. It is simply Danish research at its best," says Martin Thorborg,co-founder of SPAMfighter. "The technology will benefit our more than one millionusers worldwide, and help us gain an even larger share of the security market."

SPAMfighter draws its power from the fact that 1.2 million users report spam as theyreceive it, with a single click. Once several users have reported the same spammessage, it is automatically filtered for all other users. The result is that 98 percent of all spam is filtered out before it reaches any given user.
