Because I buy almost everything on line, my email address seems to be on every spam list going. I get an average of 160 spams a day.
I have Spamhilator (free) which sorts the spam away from my Outlook Express Inbox.
A few months ago I paid about £25 (on line) for Spybot which stops website cookies from spying on which sites I look at (in the hope that this will stop some spam)
I have AVG(free) anti virus which updates and scans daily.I have a firewall.
I don't think that there is much else that can be done until spamming becomes unprofitable for the spammers - until then it is just something we have to put up with.
