Re: How to kill spam?

Yes ,of course .


First NAV (Norton Antivirus ) doesn't have SPAM protection as it is
antivirus tool.But Norton Internet Security has SPAM protection.But you don't
need Norton Internet Security.

I don't know why you use Outlook Express ,you have office Outlook which is
better.
It has SPAM protection which is very useful and good.
Open Office 2003 Outlook ,goto its settings and make sure its SPAM
protection ( it is called Junk protection) is ON and is set to High level.
All SPAM will automatically be moved to a folder Junk or you might choose to
have these junk letters automatically removed.
To have maximum and effectictive protection ,make sure you have updated your
Office 2003 to SP 2 and your Outlook Junk filters are up-to-date

To update your Office applications and your MS Office Outlook ,open any
Office program -(example Word ,Excel ,Outlook ,Power Point .......) then
click Help -> Check for Updates.

When you update your Office and when you have set High level of Junk
protection (in Outlook 2003 Junk protection means SPAM protection) ,your SPAM
will definitely be reduced.

Now think about the virus protection.Make sure your Norton AV scans ALL
files + compressed .Make sure its heuristic scan (also called *Bloodhoud* in
Norton) is set to Maximim.
If you have Norton 2003,2004 or 2005 ,use Symantec Intelligent Updater in
combination with Live Update

However ,if you have Norton 2006 version ,you don't need Intelligent updater
because Live Update offers daily updates (only in 2006 versions).

I use NAV for my computer.
But I use OE mainly for emailing. So I want to kill those drug spam.
I also use Office 2003 with Outlook. I use Outlook mainly for calendar and
contact address.
So emailing was disabled.

but if you use MS Office Outlook it has spam protection.

Could you please go a little more specific about spam protection under MS
Office 2003 Outlook?
If Outlook is more effective against spam, I might switch to 2003Outlook.
Thanks.

Unfortunately you can just kill the SPAM.

Outlook Express doesn't have spam protection but if you use MS Office
Outlook it has spam protection.

There are many software that offer SPAM protection which will move the
spam
into separate folder or will just delete it.
Panda
Kaspersky
Norton
McAfee
...many others...

Nowadays, most of spams are coming in html format.
So message rules do not work on those kinds of spam.
How can I kill those spams (in html)?
I use Outlook Express (and WinXP Pro-SP2).
