One thing that helps eliminate a lot of this crap plus unwanted junk
price lists from companies you don't want. Set the maximum size of any
email to 20K or so, this is large enough to receive any mail on the
list, the larger ones with attachments get blocked and only the subject
line and sender appear in the mail. If I get a legitimate attachment
from someone I know, I just log onto my ISP site and download it. My
norton is up to date and to this point (touch wood) I have never
downloaded a vir.
