Incidentally, I believe the spammer in question is the one behind the sites registered and hosted by trkhosting. They took me off the spamming list after February 13, so I never saw the jagk.com spamrun. But I managed to confirm the sending IP through Google. It matches the trkhosting spammer. Funny eh, the spamming of my site stopped a few days after I talked to Tom Koch (head honcho at trkhosting), but continues in other places on the web…
