If You Do Research On The Web You Really Need An Internet Spam Filter

Surfing the internet nowadays exposes people to an increasing number of spam messages. New spam filters are a great way to fight spam.

GEORGIA, Spam has got to be one of the most annoying things on the Internet today. When pop-ups first came on the scene, every website was inundated with tons of pop-ups. Spam flooded the Internet with so many copies of the same messages. "It's a very shameful attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive it." says Anna Folds owner of "Free Spam Filter" ( www.freespamfilter.net ) a site that helps people fight spam. "Most spam is commercial advertising of get-rich-quick schemes, or products for younger looking skin." There are basically two types of spam and they affect Internet users differently. Cancelable Usenet spam is a single message sent to many Usenet spam is aimed at people who read newsgroups but rarely or never post and give their address away. Usenet spam robs users of the utility of the newsgroups by overwhelming them with a barrage of advertising or other irrelevant posts. Email spam is another type of spam that targets individual users with direct mail messages. Email spam lists are usually created by scanning Usenet postings and stealing Internet mailing lists, or searching for Web addresses. "What ever IT is, it's not wanted and thank goodness there are plenty of websites were they will allow you to download free spam blockers." says Folds, who like everyone else is tired to deal with spam.

Internet spam filters are a good way to block spam pop-ups, in fact, without them, there really is no way to get from website to website without Internet spam filters today. Even with spam filters, some pop-up can still get through. However, most Internet spam filters can recognize more than 98% of all incoming spam. There are Plugins that can be installed on your computer that will increase your Internet spam filters to the program. A Spamihilator does just what it says, it annihilates spam and e-mail spam. Most are freeware applications and some will send you a daily report by e-mail if you want that will tell you how much spam you receive during that day while you were online. This way, you can restore false-positives or add the senders to your friends or block them completely. It is a Federal offense for anyone who knowingly, with the intent to carry on any activity which would be a Federal or State crime of fraud or identity theft.

"Free Spam Filter" is a site that can really help get the edge in combating spam, too often people are misguided to download applications that never do any good.
