    Thank god i get 10,000 spam mails a day (seriously) And a question!!!

    Today i accidentally double clicked an e-mail....which if you know anything about security, you know worms are the most dangerous of the "viruses" out there...Since their signature changes so often its usually days/weeks before scanners pick them up. And they are so small if one was custom made & only sent to a few people, they would never get picked up as a virus on your scanner...for maybe a year +.... And usually worms come in the form of...you guessed it...EMAIL.

    So today I'm thankful for my male enhancement e-mail spam....At least double clicking that didn't lead to a 4 hour worm search & destroy.


    Now for the question.

    Which program would you suggest for ONLY e-mail protection. I want something lightweight...easy on the CPU & RAM...and can be used as a stand alone that runs only when checking e-mail.

      Filter anything that's not text/plain or text/html. Oddly, this has a 100% success rate except for stupidity.

          I'm a satisfied spam arrest customer, I'm sure a more picky individual would find problems with it, but for me it's been great, the only annoyance is the delay of delivering messages when I signup to a CCBill program for example and need the code right away, or after signing up to a forum.. Then you have to login to their webadmin and tell it to check manually.

          I just don't really get any spam anymore

              Disable html in mails, always read them as text-only, careful with the links. End of that story.

                just use nod32 you can't get any lighter on the system and it's updated daily.
                In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                    If you use a custom mail software / mail box ..
                    you can setup a small mail forward rule to gmail and then get it back to your mail software by adding a rule to google or using pop/imap
                    They have a great filter .

                      Not sure if this is what you want/need. BUT

                      I use spamassasin on the server. I had isprime set it up with score higher
                      than 4.5 --->delete.
                      It checks for bad words, but also IP adress, sorb lists, dns lists etc. I have to check the exact settings, but forst it didnt help, but now with the new settings I only get like 3-4 spams a day(text only) in stead of 1000 or so.

                      For my system I use kaspersky. They are very very good, fast, and it simply finds every virus/worm. Great combination for me
                      Questions?

                        would suggest fusemail.
                        they have a real good spam filtering system.

                              Now for the question.

                              and I did this, and do it as often as needed:

                              set up an auto-responder to the mailbox you have now that says "I am protecting my self from spam, please email me at the new address listed on www.blahblah.com" make them click something to find your new address so the spam bot doesn't pick it up, and make that address on the site
                              name (@) domain (.) com
                              so spiders don't grab it

                                i agree. nod32 will give you full protection, antivirus,email, firewall. uses hardly any resources, you wont even know that its running

                                    i do have html disabled....i have to click on "allow html & images" by hand for it to load newsletters from sponsors etc.

                                    but the plain fact is....if someone was directly targeting me, they would probably fake a mail from a sponsor etc.

                                    thank you very much....I installed it last night, definitely the first anti-virus I've ever considered buying, whats the license fee going to be on it after the free 30 days?
