Copenhagen, Denmark -- (ReleaseWire) -- 12/28/2007 -- With online holiday shopping already breaking records and predicted to increase an overall 20 percent through December*, cyber-crooks have been hard at work spreading their own brand of holiday cheer—holiday spam. This year marks an all time high for spam, accounting for 10.8 trillion messages, according to industry market researcher IDC. With the start of the holiday season Nov. 23, holiday spam has spiked, representing an initial 6 percent increase over pre-Thanksgiving levels—with more to come, warns SPAMfighter http://www.spamfighter.com, an international spam security and filtering company. Consumers need to take more precautions this season and update their spam protection now to combat spam growth expected through the end of the year.

"Spammers are banking on the fact that millions of less cyber-savvy consumers are spending more time online to get the best deals and gifts, but haven't taken the time to secure their PCs or update their spam protection," said Alix Aranza, Managing Director, SPAMfighter North America. "This year consumers need to be especially careful and guard against more advanced techniques and aggressive spam offers."

To ensure a safe and secure holiday shopping experience, SPAMfighter recommends consumers keep the following tips in mind:

• Never make a purchase or donate money through an unsolicited e-mail offer. If the offer sounds too good to be true, it probably is a scam. Holiday charity scams are a favorite technique of spammers and crooks. Donate through the trusted organization's Web site directly. Consumers should create a separate free e-mail account for online shopping to avoid potential spam and to keep track of online purchases.
• Before you shop online, download the latest spam filter protection – don't rely on a PC program from last year or the PC manufacturer to send you a reminder. Spam and virus filtering protection should be upgraded, at a minimum, once a year or more, depending upon Web visits. SPAMfighter, for example, is constantly monitoring new spam scams and automatically offers new upgrades to customers.

• Don't open holiday e-cards from unknown senders. This is a primary way for spammers to replicate and send malicious malware such as the Storm Worm, to hijack unprotected PCs and turn these into spam machines.
• Watch out for higher levels of phishing e-mails. These are legitimate-looking e-mails from what appears to be a trusted, well-known brand, such as your bank or popular sites, like eBay and Amazon. In reality, this spam seeks to steal personal or financial information by redirecting the e-mail user to a fake, but very real-looking Web site, that asks for confidential or personal information. When in doubt, call the bank or company supposedly sending the e-mail and verify the request.
• Social networking phishing spam is on the rise. Phishers are using social networking sites, such as MySpace, to target specific groups of e-mail users with free gift offers and ads. Check your privacy settings on these sites to restrict who can access your information and never click on a link posted by an unknown source.
• Be cautious with hyperlinks to other Web sites and don't open hyperlinks in an unsolicited e-mail. Clicking on the link is a confirmation to the spammer that an e-mail address is active and to whom it belongs, and more importantly, opens the door to new malware and viruses or a phishing site.

Security products, such as SPAMfighter can help filter out these dangerous messages for e-mail users. SPAMfighter can be downloaded free at www.spamfighter.com <http://www.spamfighter.com> . The company also offers VIRUSfighter to help users protect their computers against viruses. A free 30-day trial of VIRUSfighter is available at www.spamfighter.com/virusfighter.

"Spyware has become such a dangerous threat to computer security. We knew immediately we had to create an anti-spyware program to help stop this from spreading and infecting computers world wide." ,stated Co-Owner and Co-Founder Martin Thorborg.

The way SPYWAREfighter works is by scanning all active programs for running pests. This detects any threats, making the system more secure against malicious threats. SPYWAREfighter allows for automatic or manual scanning for spyware, malware, or other malicious software. An analysis tools program allows a user to scan manually for possible threats. When a threat is detected, it will be encrypted and stored in quarantine, making it harmless to the user's computer.

SPYWAREfighter is also able to scan for DLL Trojans. These are Trojans which inject themselves into other secure processes. When a DLL Trojan is detected by SPYWAREfighter, it is then deleted from the computer.

Copenhagen, Denmark -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/21/2007 -- The makers of SPAMfighter and Norman have worked together to develop a new anti-virus program called VIRUSfighter. This is user friendly software which is easy to install on any computer using Windows. VIRUSfighter protects against the very latest virus threats and other malicious software.

"Viruses can be spread from known contacts e-mails, and can be disastrous to a computer. We decided it was important to create a product to help protect computer users from these malicious viruses." says Co-Owner and Co-Founder Martin Thorborg regarding the development of VIRUSfighter.

VIRUSfighter works by running discreetly in the background scanning files and watching for threats. Once a virus outbreak occurs, VIRUSfighter is immediately updated on the user's machine, allowing users to stay constantly protected from the latest threats.

One advantage of VIRUSfighter is that it is almost maintenance free. VIRUSfighter can be set up to scan files at specific time periods. Users have complete control over VIRUSfighter, and can determine when they want their system scanned, and never have to manually start the scanner.

Users can also determine what they want scanned. For example, VIRUSfighter can be set to scan Outgoing and Incoming mails, as well as newsgroups, and incoming instant messages for viruses and threats.

The VIRUSfighter software works by quarantining the suspected virus or threat. It is then disabled by allowing it to run its game in a "safe" area where it cannot negatively affect the user's computer or files. If the suspected file is found not to be a threat, it is then released to the user. However, if it is found to be a virus, it is quarantined so the user is never affected.

Copenhagen, Denmark -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/27/2006 -- SPAMfighter has released SPAMfighter Exchange Module v. 3.0, a fast and powerful spam-fighting system that increases productivity and optimizes time by effectively eliminating spam from your email stream. Unlike anti-spam solutions that rely upon word filters, SPAMfighter is experience-based, and generates no false positives.

SPAMfighter Exchange Module is powered by more than 1.1 million users worldwide. Every day, thousands of these users report spam to the company. When enough SPAMfighters report the same spam email, it is instantly removed from all SPAMfighter Exchange Module users' inboxes.

This proven system provides instant spam protection, with no configuration or maintenance challenges, and with no false positives.

Each day, SPAMfighter screens more than 4 million emails, and removes more than 2.5 million spams.

Because the SPAMfighter Exchange Module is fully integrated with Microsoft Exchange Server, there is no need for clientside software. As each email arrives, SPAMfighter Exchange Module makes a unique, encrypted signature for each message, and sends it to the SPAMfighter Server for evaluation. If the SPAMfighter Server determines that a message is spam, it notifies SPAMfighter Exchange Module, and the spam mail is moved to the user's spam folder. This unique workflow ensures that there is no possibility for email outages due to the SPAMfighter process.

While users rarely need to look at their spam folders, they have the peace of mind of knowing that all of their spams are available.
Management reports are available to administrators, allowing them to track how many messages have been filtered, how many users are SPAMfighter-enabled, and more.

SPAMfighter Exchange Module is also available with the company's VIRUSfighter software, ensuring that viruses and worms are removed before they can damage users' computers. VIRUSfighter is sold separately, and is completely integrated with SPAMfighter Exchange Module. In tandem, the two security products offer a user-friendly and secure solution to two of today's biggest threats to business security.

New features in v. 3.0 include design and cache enhancements that dramatically increase email processing speed, integration with VIRUSfighter, automatic program upgrades, a new administration interface, and the ability to import and export whitelists and blacklists.

Whether you're a business person who is looking for an effective spam solution that doesn't require employees to understand and configure complicated software, or a network administrator who wants a powerful anti-spam solution that doesn't generate false positives, SPAMfighter Exchange Module has the tools that you need.

SPAMfighter Exchange Module v. 3.0 requires Microsoft Windows Server 2000 or newer, Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 or newer, and .NET Framework 1.1.

SPAMfighter Exchange Module licenses begin at $125(US) for a one-year, 5-user license. Multi-user licenses and VIRUSfighter bundling are available. For more information, or to download a free 30-day trial version, visit the company's web site at http://www.spamfighter.com/product_sem.asp

Copenhagen Denmark -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/13/2006 -- Spammers are getting more and more sophisticated, and one of the tricks that is gaining ground is writing spam text in an image. Since spam filters 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 annoying image-based spam messages.

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

"We are very proud to have solved a problem that is causing great difficulty for all our competitors. It is simply Danish research at its best," says Martin Thorborg, co-founder of SPAMfighter. "The technology will benefit our more than one million users 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 they receive it, with a single click. Once several users have reported the same spam message, it is automatically filtered for all other users. The result is that 98 per cent of all spam is filtered out before it reaches any given user.
