Spam Control

80% of SPAM comes from about 200 known spam operations [ http://www.spamhaus.org/rokso/index.lasso]. Using Real-time Black Lists (RBL) we block 60,000 to 70,000 email messages each day. Each of these email messages is addressed to multiple recipients, usually from 5 to 15 of our customers. So we effectively block from 300,000 to 1,000,000 spam messages each day! As new spam sites are identified each day, they are added to the black list, and are not longer a problem. Included in our SPAM control is Spamhaus Exploits Block List [http://www.spamhaus.org/xbl/] (XBL) which blocks illegal 3rd party exploits, including open proxies, worms/viruses with built-in spam engines, and other types of trojan-horse exploits.

Virus Control

All incoming and outgoing email messages are scanned with Command Central's Vexira [ http://www.centralcommand.com/] anti-virus software. We update our anti-virus detection patterns every 10 minutes so that email virus risk to our customers is extremely low. However, there is short period of time from the beginning of an email based virus attack until the release of the blocking pattern when infected email will be passed through the server. Therefore we recommend that you should be very careful when open any unknown email attachment which could infect your computer. We consider SPAM and virus control a top priority and work hard to safeguard our customers computers.
