Your log is clean And I just happened to be here, not always so quick

 

yes thats very good to hear thanks alot for that -kemisti- its just that a freind of mine had a very similar email and it was infected with sober so i was concerned.
can anyone recomend anything to stop crap like that invading my inbox, its just anoying and in future it could be alot worse.
i shouldnt have opened it but i did as i thought it maybe from someone i knew even though i didnt recognise the adress.

 

does anyone know any free programs that keep crap like that away, ???


come on some one must know one they can recomend

 

anyone?

i havnt realy found any half decent ones yet, i looked on download.com, none are realy any good...

is their any anti spam programs that are for hotmail, as all i can find is anti spam for mozzilla thunderbird ect.

if anyone can recomend a good free one that theyre using then please tell me, i hate this stuff...

 

yeh ive used norton anti spam, it was great as it was built into hotmail, im sure theres freebies that are good.

hotmail dont get money from spaming people what are you talking about,free email acount its great everyone has it as its great(but not so great as im got that damm e mail that my freid got that was a worm in the end, luckily for me it want harmful)

so can some one please tell me a decent freebie for a hotmail acount as i can only find them for mozzila thunderbird ect...

 

SpamPal is Free -- http://www.spampal.us/ -- it has to be trained for awhile then it is quite effective.

 

SpamPal does not work with:

* AOL
* Hotmail
* Yahoo
* Juno
* MSN
* Or any other proprietry mail system.

what id like is one that works with Hotmail, im using eprompter to read my mail at the minuet its ok, if anyone can tell me annother one thats compatible that would be great.

btw jeanc1 thanks for the suggestion, even though it was not for me i appreiciate the help.

 

hey thanks for that vurbal realy appriciate that because id like to get help with this.

and again thanks!!

ive been looking on download.com but id just want someone to recomend one as i am needing one.

 

come on now there MUST BE someone who knows a decent anti spam!!!


ps, this would be real handy so if anyone could lend a hand here id be real happy about it thanks.
