Hi Claude!
Well, I have been at it all afternoon. I think I have it. I didn't find it easy to set up. Maybe someone that is more advanced on the computer than I am, would have found it easier!


Does anyone know if MacAfee really has a spam filter? MacAfee is included with comcast subscription.
I use JAWS.
Thanks so much,
Sally

I also use AVG, because of it's accessibility I don't know about
MacAfee's accessibility I've heard it's not so good especially since it is
a product like Norton by Symantec.
What Screen reader if any are you using? I use Window-Eyes. There was a
review of another accessible virus scan software on, ACB's www.acbradio.org
"Main Menu" a few weeks ago, and I believe it had a spam and junk E-mail
filter.

Thanks, Claude. I will give it a try. Comcast suggested using the MacAfee
virus scan rather than the AVG virus scan. It may have a spam filter within
it. By now, it's probably about 50 spam a day! I'm reluctant to disable AVG
as it is so accessible.

I've  seen that
0spam.com
Which looks to be some kind of  on line spam filtering set-up, Can be
helpful,  it looks to be free for one user account, , check it out.
 Also, I've heard It's very screen reader friendly too!

I'm really surprised that Comcast isn't doing anything about Spam,
such as
a spam filter. I used Comcast for several years and I never had any Spam
issues, and now I get about 8 spam messages a day that just get
filtered into my junk mail folder in my outlook program.
Good luck,

Hi!
Does anyone have a solution to share with me about spam?  I am now
getting

about 15 per day.  Would using Real One player have anything to do with
this problem?  My two other computers get no spam.  Comcast's only
solution is through Web mail and that gets too complicated.
Thanks,
Sally
