Hello all,
A recent increase in bogus spam in my inbox has sent me searching for
the latest utility software to purchase/download. I've always received
30-40 spam advertisements daily, but lately that number has increased
to upwards of a thousand a day, threatening to swamp my iMac and
consuming hours of my day! Moving from OS 9.2.2 to OS X.3 has helped
speed my daily email deleting task, but I still need some suggestions
on anti-viral software.
Many of the recent spam are mailer-daemon messages, replying to
messages I never sent from my domain name (I have a website), which to
me indicates that the problem is not on my mac, but on a distant domain
name server.
Any suggestions to help me better understand how to combat this
problem, or a suggested FAQ site would be much appreciated. I always
thought that Macs were less likely to become infected with internet
viruses, but maybe that's too simplistic a viewpoint.
Regards,
Greenfield Bowie
