Viruses

I know this is off topic however, a large number of you appear to have
viruses. That notice from Microsoft you got in your email about a security
patch was not from Microsoft. It was a virus...To kill it see the link.

If you don't have anti-virus get it, if you have it keep it up to date.
NEVER open anything you are not expecting!

It's not a *virus* actually it's an email *worm* and we've already BTDT on
this topic.. quite some time ago.

Swen Worm Infects Over 1.5 Million Computers

Virus utility programs don't differentiate between *virus* and *worm*.. they
call everything you don't want on your computer a *virus* even if it is
not.. They are very different problems though.

for those still being plagued with hundreds of these worms in your inbox --
try this anti spam program. I am running it and I cannot tell you how much
I LOVE it. It filters out all the crap, and let's in the stuff you want.
You customize to suit you, and before an e-mail can get to you, the sender
has to verify himself, something spammers never do. You can always check
the box on their website for stuff you think should have gotten through --
but it never does. It's quick, easy and you can try it 30 days free -- check
it out.

That is pretty interesting.

Since you've used it, can you tell me more specifically how it works? From your
point of view as an end user.

Do you still use your own email program as you did before?

Does your email route through their company's server first (basically holding it
for you0?

I've heard of this before. I don't like the way it works, with the
verification thing. I think it might hurt my eBay business. G

I think that is exactly what it does.. I don't like the idea of someone else
possibly getting my email in the guise of *scanning it for spam* even though
I am sure it's a legit service. I also refuse to pay someone to do it. You
can set up your own filters easily enough. And as Thomas said, you also run
the risk of not getting important things because some one else has decided
for you what is spam and what isn't. One person's *spam* is potentially
another persons livelihood. And I am not talking from the perspective of the
spammer there, lol. I at one time filters out web email comains such as
hotmail and yahoo because alot of spammers use them to spoof return
addresses. Problem with that is, alot of people on EBay use those domains
for correspondence. I was always finding things I needed to get had been
filtered to my delete file.

I agree with Teeb. Marc, you can try MailWasher at http://www.firetrust.com
to scan and filter your incoming mail before your mail reader catch it.

You can filter the key word like VIAGRA, PHARMACY, and other.

Mailwasher you can download for free but the Pro will cost you.

Thanks Cap, I really like what I'm seeing so far. Did you register yet? How
long is your registration good for?
