Assuming the moderator lets this thru and at the risk of offending anyone with this off subject post, I am raising it because if you are like me, you are being overrun by spam.
I have installed a spam blocking program called SpamPal available for free at http://www.spampal.org. I am absolutely amazed by how effective it is. For example yesterday I received 245 e-mails, of which 225 were spam, some of the most disguisting kind.. Of these only 2 sneaked by SpamPal! I am willing to help anyone who needs some assistance in setting up the options in SpamPal to work for them, but let's do it off the reflector. It is my hope that the more people who block spam the less profitable it will be and it may decline...hope springs eternal! You may contact me ONLY at my call, N5IN, at my obvious arrl.net address. Thanks, Ron Stordahl, N5IN
