I was getting several hundred of these a day. I got the idea to take my
email address out of my Chat group profiles, just in case some hacker
software was 'harvesting' email addressesfrom these sites. When I removed my
email address from the Yahoo Chat groups I was subscribed to, the spam
seemed to stop dead in its tracks. All has been quiet for some time now.

Coincidence??

Yes, 14 yesterday and 4 so far this morning.


you must not have many friends who have you in their address book... i
got
about 1000 overnight last night and about 2500 the day before.


I only get about 3 or 4 emails a week from the spammers. Mostly about
penile enlargement, for some reason.

I recently changed my email address, and set my ISP email anti-spam
filter to "light". That sure cut down on the email.

I also have no firewall and no anti-virus protection, but the computer
works fine, day after day, regardless of how much I get on the
Internet.
