It doesn&#8217;t matter whether you&#8217;re employed or unemployed. It doesn&#8217;t matter if you&#8217;re a CEO of a multinational or if you&#8217;re a work at home parent &#8211; spam affects us all.<\/p>\n<p>There are dozens of porgams available for fighting spam. The major problem is that most of these programs cost money.<\/p>\n<p>What I&#8217;m going to do is show you 5 different ways of combating spam &#8211; all free.<\/p>\n<p>1. Don&#8217;t give out your personal email address.<\/p>\n<p>This is stating the obvious but it&#8217;s the first big mistake people make. DO NOT use your personal email address for<\/p>\n<p>sign up forms, competitions, surveys or any other nonsense that may result in you being spammed. It&#8217;s much easier to prevent spam, by never giving out your personal email address, than it is to cure the problem once you&#8217;re on 100&#8217;s of junk email lists.<\/p>\n<p>2. Use a free email account<\/p>\n<p>Set yourself up with a Hotmail, Yahoo or any other free email account and use it as a spam holder account i.e. use it on all those popups or sign up forms that you *suspect* may try to spam you. You can then periodically check your free email account for both legitimate and spam email and<\/p>\n<p>delete the rubbish you don&#8217;t want. This single step can save you countless spam related headaches.<\/p>\n<p>3. Use a disposable email address<\/p>\n<p>You could also try a disposable e-mail address from www.spamgourmet.com. This is a brilliant idea. Once you&#8217;ve registered your forwarding email address (your personal<\/p>\n<p>email address) with them you can then create<\/p>\n<p>self-destructing email addresses that stop working after receiving a specific number of emails.<\/p>\n<p>4. Use a free spam filter.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately even when you follow all the correct steps you can still wind up getting junk email. There&#8217;s only solution at that point &#8211; install a spam filter on your PC.<\/p>\n<p>The best free spam filter I&#8217;ve come across so far is Mailwasher. An excellent<\/p>\n<p>program that won&#8217;t cost you a penny.<\/p>\n<p>5. Newsgroups and forums<\/p>\n<p>Spammers love newsgroups and forums. They especially love the way people post their personal email addresses there. It doesn&#8217;t matter if it&#8217;s a paid, private or free forum spammers have their harvester programs hunting for email addresses every minute of every day. If you have to post<\/p>\n<p>your email address then use the following format:<\/p>\n<p>username AT domain.com. If that doesn&#8217;t make sense then what I mean is instead of posting as test@spam-site.com you&#8217;d<\/p>\n<p>post as test AT spam-site.com.<\/p>\n<p>Spammers can harvest 35,000 email addresses per hour from newsgroups and forums &#8211; don&#8217;t let your email address become one of those.<\/p>\n<p>There you have 5 simple, free solutions to drastically reduce the amount of spam you receive every single day.
