Angry Spammers using my url

Anyone know what recourse I have on these #@$%#$%#$% spammers who have been using my domain as the return address on their propaganda? I traced an IP to amsterdam and I'm assuming short of buying a plane ticket and visiting them in person (crowbar in tow) there's nothing I can do to stop them... or is there?

all I know is its freakin pissin me off! Has this happened to anyone else? Any ideas on how to combat this?

sounds like this is becoming more and more common - sadly, not much that can be done, especially when the crooks are doing it in another country. If it's an address you are using, you may choose to change it, and set HSphere up to delete all incoming messages to that account.

I've got someone from NTLWorld sending out emails with a virus attached using a bogus address from one of my forum web sites.

Just reported them to their ISP - not much esle I can do at this point... annoying isn't it!
