It does work. So does the popup blocker. I'm on Cox cable in
San Diego, South County.

Ya I saw that email...
Do they put your email into another "Spam" folder or do you just never see it?

I use Opera's spam blocker which works great (and obviously its pop up blocker) so not incredibly concerned but curious.

There are, I belive, three options. I picked "never See It". Didn't
pay much attention to the other two, and I'm happy in my ignorance. The pop-up blocker is a one-time free down load.
Only one spam in about three weeks.

they makr the email that is spam with -- SPAM -- and they want you to make up a folder named spam and use a message rule that any email subject with -- spam -- will automatically go into that folder.

ingenious idea, but more hassle for me as i dont get spam

this is something i would use for my mom, if she didnt have norton spam 2004 which works quite well
