BERLIN, May 20 /PRNewswire/ --

"The daily spam volume has doubled since 1 April 2009, Germany's leading e-mail security provider eleven reports. After growing significantly in the second half of April, the eleven experts have noticed a dramatic increase in spam traffic, beginning 5 May 2009. Between 1 April and 18 May 2009, spam grew by 102 per cent overall. This growth constitutes twice the amount of spam as compared to before the spam hoster McColo was cut off in November 2008. That cutoff precipitated a drastic, but apparently temporary, drop of worldwide spam levels by more than 60 per cent. "
