Is it just me...?

I have begun to notice a disturbing trend over the past week or ten days.

The amount of spam showing up across the board - in my personal account, my work account, and my web-based e-mail - is bloody well going exponential, to the point where I actually have to make an effort to make sure I don't accidentally delete something that is really mail.

My relief just showed up... time to make like a tree.

Cheers...

UPDATE: For the heck of it, I counted the spam received since 10 pm last night (it's 2:15 pm right now, so that's about 16 hours), I've received 77 spams just in my personal e-mail. Blyech.

I've noticed the same thing. However, this week it's seemed to have slowed down quite a bit.

Today's WinInfo newsletter says that, "Spam filters captured more spam in July 2003 than in all of the year 2002." I believe it.
