Spam techniques scare

One of the most frustrating at the time we operate on the Internet is the number of spam in e-mail that we receive. If you are active in the various mailing list & communicate using e-mail at the Internet level spam revenues could reach more than 20% of the e-mail messages. Here are some practical tips that can be used to flush the e-mail spam using a software-free software that can be taken from the Internet. For Windows users,
Favorite software that can be used is secretmaker that can be taken from http://www.secretmaker.com in the download section or sometimes like there are in http://www.download.com. How to install secretmaker such as how to install the software in Windows is very simple & ordinary. That we need to look at is to operate some protection prepared by secretmaker of spam & worms, spyware & intruder, profiling & tracking, and the last evidence betray & protection. If all possible protection facilities in the switch because it will really help protect the computer you not only from spam, but also from various pop-up as we do browsing on the Internet. My advice, do not operate the computer on the Internet without secretmaker.

Tool that does not lose its interest in a special deal for a spam in the e-mail is spamfu http://spamfu.net. SpamFu basically a proxy server for e-mail that will analyze the e-mail messages using SpamAssassin which is often used in Linux. Installation spamfu with the installation of other software in Windows. A slightly confusing configuration software is a client such as Eudora, Outlook Express etc.. The most important is the need to set the username to be username: machine-pop-ISP, is the pop server that was should be machine-pop-ISP into localhost / 127.0.0.1.

For those of you who truly paranoid with the virus through e-mail, you should use a software-software that text mode client. I use Windows on the PC-pine that can be taken from http://www.washinton.edu/pine/ for both Windows and for Linux.

For those of you who use Linux, then the defense techniques that can be made more complex again. Indeed, most of the software in need of defense can take the free on the Internet. Spam Defense is available in Red Hat Fedora Core 4 is SpamAssassin. SpamAssassin software can be installed directly in at the time of installation of Red Hat Fedora Core 4. Indeed can not be directly used, we need to change the file / etc / procmailrc. Sample content procmailrc file can be taken in http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.0.x/dist/procmailrc.example.

If you simply configure the Linux Server experts. It is a good idea to read the read-MailScanner can be integrated with the Postfix SMTP server, SpamAssassin, and clamav. So that all mail that contains viruses & spam akan buang at first. This technique should be used at the ISP level. MailScanner can take in free or in the http://www.mailscanner.info http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/. Anti virus clamav are able to take in the free http://www.clamav.net. For Windows users who want to use clamav recommend taking the version of Windows in its http://www.clamwin.com

Hopefully this paper can be useful to reduce the spam attacks on your computer. Akan better ISP if you also install a spam defense.
