You get most spam because your internet activity is being tracked and that info is sold to spammers.

If you want to get rid of them you need to hide your IP so that they can't track you. After awhile the spam will drop off.

Stan's right about opening and/or responding to spam. Particularly if there is an option to unsubscribe. If you clink of that all it does is tell them its a valid email address and you are moved to a more valuable list to be sold to other spammers.

Hiding IP

Hi UdonExpat,

If you'd be so kind...

How does one hide their IP?

Thanks,
Doc

I use a small software program called Proxomitron. It does many things. One of which is hiding your IP.

There are many other programs that do so. Some are free, others have a fee. I suggest visiting http://www.auditmypc.com/
