Remember when spam was just another horrible thing you would never eat? And then you grew up a little and spam became the lyrics to a great Monty Python song. And now spam is something to avoid at all costs. Or, in the case of free spam blockers, at no cost at all. Everything is better when its free, right? Such is the case with blocking out annoying spam from your email account, too.
Free spam blockers are popping up all over the internet. Kind of ironic, isnt it, that some pop-up ads are advertising spam blocking technology. The problem with spam isnt really the content, of course, its the time spent winnowing through all those e-mails in search of the ones that really contain useful information or are from people with whom you want to contact. The best free spam blockers in the world are not only free, but dont take up any space on your computer. Yes, Im talking about being very careful to whom you give your e-mail address.
The plain simple truth is that any time you fill out a form that asks for your e-mail address, you are just asking for spam. Maybe the site where you filled out the form sold your address to mass marketers and maybe they didnt, but chances...
