Re: This blows...

I think it is a good short term solution to slow down the spammers. You are correct that they will find ways around it but at least it will break what they have in place for the moment.

In the long term ISP's need to force the responsibility on the end users (by making it part of their TOS) and take them offline of they don not fix their zombie computers.
