By the way, in support of the recommendation of Mozilla,
Mozilla has a junk filter tool that really works. I set
it up to put junk mail into a separate folder that I can
look over to check for false positives and then either
empty out manually or I can set Mozilla itself to toss
junk mail after as many days as I want to set it for.

After training the filter on a few initial samples, it has
been flawless. I haven't found any swen postings in my Inbox
for the last few days, with well over a hundred tossed
into the Junk folder.

Stacey,

Thanks for the advice..

I recomend mozilla. Free download and works identical for all purposes
except it's not a virus magnet. Even has an import utility which after you
use and find everything working I would UNINSTALL outlook express
altogether. BTW after you use the web browser, you might give up on IE as
well! It's a shame you can't uninstall IE as well but MS made sure you
couldn't do that..

LOL!

Actually, MICROSOFT is a virus in and of itself. I work on an a REAL computer
(IBM mainframe), and it makes Microsoft look like $hit.

If your ISP has some form of a html email browser (the same way you would
access a yahoo or hotmail email account), then just go in and delete them
there before downloading them into your email reading program. That's my
solution at this point so far.......

Thats fine, but still deleting the messages at the server is working for me.
If my ISP would support such corrective actions at their end, that would be
even better. At least as long as the attacks are affecting me, this will
work for now.

Unfortunately, that won't work for the prisoners of Earthstink.
After deleting, I get "Cannot find server" messages. And this after
a couple weeks of bitching.
