Re: Router hacked. How have you isolated the problem pointint it to the router? Are you
sure that it is your router that is spamming? This sounds somewhat
improbable, so some clarification would be warranted.
What is your home network topology, and where could spam possibly
originate?
Do you have any windows computers on the network?

Due to extreme spam originating from Google Groups, and their inattention
to spammers, I and many others block all articles originating
from Google Groups. If you want your postings to be seen by
more readers you will need to find a different means of
posting on Usenet. http://improve-usenet.org/ |
