[dba-Tech] Anti-SPAM solutions

I can recommend one NOT TO USE. McAfee's SPAMKILLER. I don't even
remember loading it. It must have come along from Dell on some of my
systems or something. I have been getting messages on it that my
subscription has expired on it on 3 different systems. I have free
subscriptions to the other parts of McAfee security via my cable
internet provider but this is not part of that suite anymore I don't
think. Maybe that is where I got it. There is no uninstall for it. I
was able to kill the spamkiller on my Vista machine which is the one
it mostly was agrevating me on. I had to uninstall ALL McAffee
products in order to do it.

My ISP, Comcast does most of the the spam blocking right at the server
for me. Then Outlook - 2003 and 2007 - finish it up. Gmail also does
it's own spam filtering too. Right now I see 1069 unread messages in
my gmail spam folder.
