New urchin 4.100 now available…

The Urchin statistics software has been upgraded to the latest version, 4.100. All previous version 3 users have been automatically upgraded.

Urchin 4 is now the premier statistics software application available on the Internet today. The new version has the most accurate methods of recording true visits to your website. By default, the software matches up IP numbers to operating systems and browsers to identify unique visitors.

More advanced users can take advantage of the Urchin Tracking Module, which will give you the most detailed and accurate data about each visitor, including return visits, first time visits, and more.

You can see a demo of this powerful software at:

The cost is only $5 per month.

Spam protection software upgraded…

The spam protection software that LexiConn offers as an add-on feature has been updated to the latest version. The new version has updated rules to catch the latest spam emails and scams, as well as improved filtering.

If you have not yet implemented the spam protection for your domain, you may easily do so at:
http://www.lexiconn.com/secure/additional.html

The cost for spam protection is an additional $3 per month, which will cover as many POP email boxes as you have on your account.

The spam protection system is completely customizable, so that it will not block legitimate email from your customers and email contacts. You can set email addresses that will always get through (whitelist), adjust the threshold of what is considered spam to only block severe spam and set up blacklists. The software is quite intelligent, tracking who sent you email, where it came from, and whether they sent you spam or legitimate email. This makes it harder for common spammers to get through, while marking your “good” contacts as legitimate, allowing the email to get to you easily.

You can even implement a virus block in the Account Manager, which will block out all attachments that are potentially harmful or may contain a virus. Once an email is detected as spam, you decide what to do with it. The system can tag the subject line so you can filter it in your local email program, it can be deleted, or you can have it send back a message saying the email was blocked as spam.
