There’s something amiss in this article in the Mint: it creates the incorrect impression that all Internet conglomerates like Info Edge, Times Business Solutions (TBSL), Consim Info and Web18 are drawing advertising away from horizontals like Indiatimes and Rediff. The article infers that this might be to blame for Rediff’s “declining growth in revenues” - […]
No, not MixedBag. Our flagship publication paidContent.org, has been nominated for a Webby award, in the Best Business Blog category.
Update: Says Rafat about awards - “we diss them publicly all the time, but as soon we get nominated, we become an award whore (well, more specifically me).”

I should think that attempts at phishing violate Yahoo!’s Spam Policy, and Yahoo! obviously doesn’t seem to be doing enough to check on how their service is being used.
Five to six emails everyday that get by Gmail’s spam filters carry a message similar to the following:

I recently installed a trial version of this software, just to track the incoming and outgoing connections, as a precaution against spyware.
