Spam Stoppers
Consider using an Internet service provider (ISP) or an email service that includes virus and spam filtering
as your first line of
defense. An increasing number of ISPs and
email services are offering these services to their
customers. If you need or want to keep your current ISP who does not offer virus
and spam filtering, see our Secure Email Hosting Services
page for some that do. In addition
to or instead of an online service, you can install software on your
computer to catch spam. For an overview of the spam problem, see
Stopping Spam, Joshua Goodman, David Heckerman and Robert
Rounthwaite, Scientific American, March 28, 2005; and
5 Ways To Lock Up Your E-Mail, Gregg Keizer, Information Week,
August 11, 2006.
