I think i may give one of those programs like mailwasher ago...Cheers, Brian.
Nothing but NOTHING gets past Mailwasher on my computers. You have to teach it a bit to start with, but if you set it to open your email client after you have processed the mail (bulk-deleted unwanted garbage) unless you get caught by an incoming spam in the few seconds between deletion & download there is zero chance of anything nasty getting through.

Always check each email before opening though, just in case.

I use the paid-for version because I have multiple accounts, and find MW to be 100% reliable.

My free version also allows unlimited accounts. Hope you're not paying a regular fee for its use.

Nothing can be 100% effective... 98% maybe, 100% no. Fightling SPAM is dynamic, it never stays still.

Not the current free version. But someone here on PressF1 gave me a free version a while back that was unrestricted. All it has is a minor nag to upgrade to the pro version. Can't recall who the kind fella was - maybe even Robsonde?

Anyway, if you'd like me to send it to you drop me a Private Message with your email addy and I'll send it on to ya.

And who would have thought ...........spam to get you to login to your bank....

These things are as common as dirt. I've had all sorts asking me to login to various NZ banks I don't have accounts with.

I did go and login to one with some rude words....
