Getting rid of usenet spam attacks using leafnode.

Hi!

We seem currently once again under attack by some usenet
terrorist, through an open proxy:

Listed in auto.dnsbl.njabl.org: [7]200.120.37.198 --> open proxy

To get rid of the crap, running leafnode, all you have to do is
putting the following in your "filters" file:

^Newsgroups:.*[, ]alt.usenet.kooks$
^Newsgroups:.*[, ]alt.usenet.kooks,

And now run:

# applyfilter comp.os.linux.misc
228 articles deleted, 1674 kept.

You may have to resubscribe in your favorite nntp reader or not,
depends on the software and your colm view should be clean again.

Don't think you can do anything about it if using some kind of
http forum to access this newsgroup?

Don't worry, the next supply will be coming next week.
