Many forum readers have substantial hardware and software expertise. Previous discussions on video drivers/cards have been helpful, and I hope someone can help in the following area.

We receive approximately 50 - 75 junk emails (spam or virus attachments) daily. Our ISP has installed antispam & antivirus filters. The ISP flags some emails in their SUBJECT line as being spam, or having a virus, and Outlook Express filters move these emails directly to the deleted folder. The ISP and Outlook Express filters catch approximately 50% of the problem emails. Remaining spam & virus infected emails still get deposited in the inbox. My Norton Antivirus flags any virus infected emails, but they're still deposited in the inbox.

Ideally, I'd like to have something that would keep a greater percentage of the spam/viruses completely off my computer, or moved automatically into the deleted email folder.

Any help that you guys can provide will be appreciated.

I've been testing out an anti-spam program for the last few days, and it works very well. For anyone else having a problem with spam, you can try this program for free for 15 days. Afterwards, purchase price is $19.99. They have a separate anti-popup program as well.
