I am receiving 13 to 20 spam emails a day...the titles look pretty trashy...HOW can I stop spam?

1. FIRST, check that the alternate e-mail address/mobile phone number is still yours, under Options, Mail Options, Account Information, but then change it! (so the hacker will not be notified of the change).

Check the 'Reply To:' address as well ... Then change both your password AND your secret questions and answers. Make them unique and long, strong ones with mixed characters! Go to "Update password-reset info" to change your Secret Questions and Answers ... Changing your password also deletes the cookie which apparently inserts that sly trojan address grabber ... If you used this password for other accounts, change them too - make every one different.

Make the password much longer than 8 characters, with mixed symbols ... Usually, this is all you need to do, although mail will still be sent in the name of the old account for a short while ... For a Yahoo account, you can change your password at https://edit.yahoo.com/config/change_pw. If you can no longer access your account, you can get a new password at https://edit.yahoo.com/forgotroot/. 2.

*** If spam mail was sent to any of your contacts, apologize, and notify all your contacts NOT to open short e-mails, especially those with no subject, and definitely not to click any links. Warn them to change their passwords and scan for malware too, just in case. Set up an alternate 'alias' account to use instead.

This allows you to use a different address for sending, but still keep all saved mails and contacts and the first address active too for incoming mail. Your friends can trust this new address! There is a choice of address in an arrow in the From: box.

Also add a signature to your mail so your friends will be sure the mail is really from you ... http://edit.yahoo..com/config/list_alias (alternate address) 3. Just to be very sure your computer is not infected, (which is very unlikely, but a wise thing to do),run both an anti-virus and spyware/malware scans, updated and separately - even more than one malware scan, or Trend Micro's Housecall for an online a-v scan. If you cannot download to your own machine, download and save on a clean computer, and transfer the executable file to a flash drive to use for your own ... in 'Safe Mode with Networking' is the only truly effective method - click F8 repeatedly when the screen first lights on boot-up, then arrow keys and Enter to navigate.

Re-boot into Safe Mode for each separate scan. Instructions can be found here too ... http://www.getwellsooncomputer.com These are the best free anti-malware programs for cleaning infections, and can be installed without conflict with other security programs ... http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free (update before running) and any one of these ... http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ (no installation - just run!) http://www.bitdefender.com/scanner/online/free.html (no installation - just run!) http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ (no installation - just run!).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
