Abstract

See full text

A system and method for filtering messages to identify spam. A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is identified in a message, and information is fetched from the site designated by the URL. The fetched information is analyzed to determine if the message that includes the URL is spam. If the message is spam, then a message filtering action is performed, such as deleting the message, displaying the message to the recipient with a flag, and sending the message to a third party.
