O E 6 question about spam
 
I am using win xp with OE 6. I get tons of spam. Is there no spam
control on IE 6? I've checked under tools and other places but found
nothing. What do other people use for spam protection when using IE 6
? Is there free spam protection that I can download somewhere ?

reply to group please.
Thank you in advance.

Do a search? There's K9, SpamPal and many others. Or, *filter in* your mail
using Message Rules.

And also go to Tools | Accounts | News | Properties | General and munge your
address to something like lid Newsgroups are one of the
favorite harvesting places for spammers to get addresses. Never post using
your real one.
