JDoors Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 (edited) I pretty much take all those precautions. My ISP filters "known spam" and I filter unknown senders to a "suspicious" mail box, so the only mail I get in my IN BOX is stuff I absolutely know I want. It's nice. BTW, ironically, the site you linked to had several popups (blocked by my software) and my software flagged it as "Highly Suspicious." Here's the analysis (I don't know what parameters they use to determine whether a site's safe or not, it's not always apparent, and some sites I know are safe are flagged, as I'm sure is the case with this one): Just thought it ironic.

jimras Posted October 14, 2006 Report Share Posted October 14, 2006 I don't get much spam anymore.I do two things that seem to help.first, I have a "yahoo" mail address that I use whenever Ihave to give out an Email address on any form or web page.I clean that one out every week or so and it's ALL spam in that one.I also run a program called "Mail Washer" that lets me see what's waiting for me on the server and I delete ANYTHING that even looks wierd.
