I agree with jerry to a point. He is correct, porn sites do constantly
change there addresses another attempt to invade your computer. He is also
correct you can buy a Spam blocker program to stop them. However these
programs can become complicated & take a great deal of time to set up. You
have to tell the program what to block. Example, you say block anything
starting with the words, fun, don't miss this one, where have you been, ect.
Depending on the program you can use specific letters, phrases, or words you
desire to block. With the various sites designing there addresses this can
become a full time job. Not to sell the programs short they do work when set
up properly. I would suggest downloading a freebee for starters, just to
familiarize yourself with the in & outs of how the programs work. I have
been to several classes provided by my employer on this subject. My personal
opinion the Spam blocker is more work than deleting or changing my address.
Always have an address you direct mail to that is not connected to your
address book.
