Hi David,

there are some software available, I used Macafee Spam Killer it worked ok, it kept safe your addresses. The only problem was, sometime it would "kill" something you wanted, so you need to keep an eye on it. There are some free ones available, that you could just do a search in google, try typing in "free spam killer" see what you get, the same for the pop ups.

I know what you mean, it's crazy, I keep getting mail about enlarging certain parts of the body!!

The best thing is, if you sign up for anything on the 'net' make sure you list your email addy as private, otherwise they get ya!

cheers

Corrugations...what are they?

I use the tools provided with outlook express (tools/messages rules) to fllter all messages. I have about 15 different folders in outlook. Using keywords and other criteria all messages are sorted and placed in the appropriate folder. 99% of the spam ends up in the deleted items folder where the sender and subject receives a quick glance to make sure it's not legitimate. Works for meHooroo

I think Brian has the best idea. ALthough havent tried McAfee Spam blocker, downloading now from a WAREZ site. >:-)~

Yahoo has the best antispam thing, shiats on Hotmail.

I have a HOTMAIL account that I use when things want you to register or when you need to post an address somewhere on the net. I dont give a bleep about the Hotmail account, I get 80+ mails there a day, all crap.

As soon as a spider(the thing that collects email addys) finds a site, or guestbook, or Yahoogroup mailing list, or what ever, it then grabs it and your gone.

The other one is when things say stuff like "WIN THIS WIN THAT".. As soon as you register your email addy is worth a fortune to these pricks..

Then I have a YAHOO account for other stuff, then I have my ISP account for personal, family and business stuff. The ISP account NEVER gets out. Only to friends adn family, or work.

There are SPAM blockers out there, but as soon as oen is created, the pricks working on the spam work a 'work around' for it.

Amazing stories guys - The cost of my bigpond.com address must be worth it - no fidling with filters or blokers - not one bit of spam!

I am using a program called "Mailwasher". It allows you to see your server before you download to the mail program. What this allows you to do is blacklist and the server remembers. Some get thru but the next mailwasher covers this. You can also read your mail on the server to double check its content. Beats filters anytime.

Mailwasher is the way to go. Try mailwasher.net --- It`s free unless you have more than one address, then you hve to pay. It`s well worth a look.
