Well, all I can say in response, is that I hardly have enough hours in the day with which to congratulate myself upon my lack of premature ejaculation, my imminent fortune as a result of my distant relatives sadly killed in that plane crash, and my massively enlarged pecker, what with having to reconfirm my log in details to Barclays every 5 f***ing minutes!!

I email them back and fill in the forms, with 12345 etc as my account numbers and 'F*** OFF YOU DOZY C***S' as my password.

I use which is for Micrsoft Outlook. It's pretty effective filtering out the rubbish from your inbox into junk folders. There are similar apps for other mail clients.

Sadly the most effective thing I did with spam was to give up my e-mail address of eight years. I'm not kidding when I say it's reduced the spam coming in by almost 90%.

You should really have one e-mail addy for using on the net and then delete it when the spam levels get too high then go and get another one.
