Re: [Merged] Spam/Viruses on ntl.
This may have come up earlier but...

which anti-spam software do you guys recommend?

is there any free software that's any good?

i've started to get loads of spam ... guess it's due to me being careless with my email address!

Mailwasher does a free verison that worked OK when I used it. The free version allows you 1 main and 1 Hotmail address. Worth a try.
