FW: spam blockers

[Scott Pavlock]

Tony:

I am currently using Mozilla Thunderbird as my mail client and am very 
happy with it. You have to "train" it to recognize junk but once you do 
that it stops a heck of a lot of it. Also I am using Mozilla FireFox as 
my web browser. This also has a built in pop-up blocker and works very 
well. It is also much faster and much more stable than Internet 
Explorer. You can get both of those from www.mozilla.org    There is 
also a program called Spybot Search and Destroy (S&D). This is located 
here: <www.mozilla.org>

http://www.spybot.info/en/index.html <www.mozilla.org>

This program will search your computer for spyware and literally do 
surgery on your programs to find the embedded spyware. It deletes most 
of it and makes your computer run a heck of a lot better. It also has an 
immunization feature that will prevent most spyware from getting into 
your computer.

All these programs are freeware so you wont have to pay any monthly or 
yearly fees.

Good luck!

Scott
