Professional drivers have limited, often rushed Internet access. The last thing you need is to sift through a heap of spam, especially from people who obviously believe you're a moron.
Earn $5,000 a week at home on your computer without selling anything? Right.
Is there anything you can do about spam? Technology Editor John Bendel addresses this question in the March issue of RoadStar magazine. In his "Techno Talk" column, Bendel says there's not much you can do, but there are a few things you can try.
1. Block spam at your internet service provider. Most ISP's have a spam-blocking system of some kind, but it only goes so far. It can also backfire, blocking legitimate e-mails you want while still letting through plenty of junk.
2. Block spam on your own computer. Some e-mail programs let you block messages from repeat spammers or set up filters to send messages with certain keywords directly to a junk mail folder. There are also software programs that claim to block spam.
3. Block (almost everybody): The surest way to stop spam is to have an e-mail account that only allows e-mail from a specific list of addresses you provide. But don't expect an old flame will find you on the Internet.
