Vatican causing a lot of spam
Gill Cleeren     Internet     July 27, 2006    

Days after the people of Sophos Antivirus came out with a list of the most active “spammer countries”, the Australian newspaper The Age found something rather interesting on the list.

Not only the U.S., China and Australia are on this list, but the Vatican (Vatican City) is on the list too! Spam is often sent by people who’s computers are infected or taken over.
The fact that the Vatican is on this list means that at least 1 computer over there is infected, probably with a Trojan horse is.


If a spam-blocker is not enough anymore to keep spam away, one could always say a little prayer for Saint-Isidorius, the patron saint of the internet!

At the Vatican, they should start right now I guess!
