stopping spam

[Alison]

The last few weeks I have been getting a great number of
spam emails with attachments that are really annoying. I
have Norton and it detects them every time, but is there
a way in OE 6 to stop this from happening? I am blocking
the sender each time as well.
Thanks

Unfortunately you can't block spam in the way that they stop sending it to
you. No posting your address on public places is one of the things you can
do to prevent being spammed.

Note that this is an Microsoft Office Outlook forum.

Outlook Express is family of Internet Explorer and Outlook of the Office
family.

Here is the link for the right forum

Good Luck!

Hi Alison
I have found that McAfee Spamkiller has worked well for me
in the past.
