Jim,
Thanks for taking care of the porno advertising thread. It had a Trojan virus in it according to my Trend Micro. So if anyone used it ??:eek:

I have Trend Micro PC-illin Internet Security on my laptop. It eliminates about 99% of the garbage that comes in through my business website. That's about 60-70 emails a day it dumps before I see it, so it does a good job. Seems the latest barage is p enlargers, pills, software and stock opportunities (?).

Clark;
Glad to hear that I'm not the only one. Just for the heck of it, I tracked a number of the stock opportunities and without exception, every one lost money within 10 days of the e-mail offer. As far as the drugs, I don't want them. They almost killed me with drug three or four years ago. They all go in my junk mail folder for deletion.

I get so many that I have to dump on a regular basis to keep from taking up too much space in my memory. I've about eliminated the unwanted fax scams. I send 20-30 back to the originator, no cost since I have flat rate long distance, and they never send me another one. I get too many emails to do that, but it is a shame that they can't do something about all this spam.

I recieved a good way to cut down on spam. When you forward something go down to the email and delete all of the previous receivers. That way no one knows all of your email address nd they aren't floating around for all to see.
