Interesting little spam device called Spam Cube. However, there doesn't seem to be any indication that they update the spam detection on a regular basis (i.e. like virus definition updates with virus programs). If that is the case this device has about a couple weeks worth of use before it starts letting in all kinds of spam.

This is pretty neat. I checked out the website. For spam, the Spam Cube is continually updated, subscription-free, with the latest spam definitions. For viruses and phish, the device receives McAfee+Norton definitions in real time as well. See http://www.spamcube.com/techspecs/ I just ordered mine, will let you know how it works.

Tim i thought i believed you there for a second that it doesnt update itself, sounded very odd i knew no one with half a brain would make something like that.

I dug a bit and it's interesting their spam protection is updated. By some hybrid AI expert system? interesting wonder how well this would work
