So it’s 2005 and what will the New Year hold… more Spam attacks on blogs or have the spammers found someting “NEW” … well over the christmas period I have seen an increase in Ping Spam (trackback) this ones quite nice it’s automated so when you create a new post it pings you straight away, So this could be the new wave, but the blog owners still get an email don’t they … or do they ! … there are new rumours of a ping spambot that bypasses the the normal entry forms and does not fire the email system … hehehe stealth spamming, so how will the bloggers combat THIS… personally if it done by date most blog owners will never know its happened..

here are what the blogs are saying
