VIRUS,WORMS & TROJAN HORSES

Often email viruses,worms & Trojan Horses come attatched to blank mail.That is email with no body next.You can gaurd against some of the malicious attatchments by simply never opening mail with no body text.
If you get an email with an attatchment and nobody text,it's good idea to delete the message immediately.

If you use Outlook Express 5 or 6(not sure about ealier versions), you can automatically move all blank messages to a special folder.
Run Outlook Express and choose File/Folder/New.When the Create Folder dialog box opens, click "Local Folders" to select it and then click in the "Folder name" entry box and enter Virus. Click OK to your new folder and close the dialog box. Choose Tools/Message Rules/Mail . When the dialog box opens,click the Mail Rules tab (if necessary) and then click New. Now, select the check box labeled "Where the message body contains specific words".
Next, select the "Move it to the specified folder" check box.Under "3. Rule description" click "contains specific words". Now, type in a and press Enter, then type e and press Enter. Repeat this procedure for i,o,u. This adds all the English vowels to the list.
Next, under "Apply rule if ", select the radio button labeled "Message does not contain the words below". Click OK to continue. Under "3. Rule Description" click "Specified" and then double-click the new Virus folder. Click OK to close the dialog box. Back in Message Rules,click OK to save your selections and close the dialog box.
Outlook Express will now move any message with nobody text to the Virus Folder.

Some Websites are notorious for pop-ups. If you don't mind pop-ups, great. But if pop-ups really annoy you,you need to find a way to turn them off automatically.We know of two freeware pop-up Killers that do an excellent job. One is POW! from Analog X, and the other is Pop Up Killer from xFx Jumpstart.
Both these applications sit in the system tray,monitoring your browsing and closing pop-ups as soon as they open.
