Anti-Spam Solutions
According to CNN:
Bill Gates, The Microsoft Corp. chairman receives 4
million e-mails a day, but practically an entire department
at the company he founded is dedicated to ensuring that
nothing unwanted gets into his inbox, the company's chief
executive said.
Here at e-Media we mainly provide
spam filtering to email hosted on our servers. We can also provide
you with software that can be installed on your PC to handle your spam
problems.
If you already have an account with us and would like
to add spam filtering to it you have several options. (filtering
is $10/month). If you are not an eMedia customer, but would like us to filter your email for viruses and spam, call for a quote. We can clean your email and send it to your current email server too.
- bounce all detected spam. send spam back where it
came from
- forward all detected spam into one main mailbox.
- forward all detected spam into a specified folder
in your mailbox.
- create rules in outlook to sort your email as it
comes in.
We are able to generate safe lists so that you get
the emails you know you want. Even if the spam filter thinks the
email is spam, if its on the safe list it will go through.
Pop-ups and spyware are
also a spam issue
With adaware by lavasoft we can help remove most
spyware from your system. Adaware comes in several versions.
Maintenance and prevention. The prevention version works much like
an anti-virus program, making sure spyware never makes it way onto your
system. The maintenance version helps remove the spyware once its
gotten into your system.
Microsoft Windows Service Pack 2 is also a useful
device in the war against pop-ups. With a decent pop-up blocker
and spyware prevention tools built into internet explorer once
installing service pack 2, you should notice a difference in pop-ups and
system run time while surfing the net.
Some useful tools for pop-up blockers and spyware
prevention are located on these web sites:
Windows Defender
