Every email account I have (11 at the last count) receives a roughly equal amount of spam - a huge amount in all cases, but without question Gmail is the best at separating it out, I never see it unless I deliberately logon and delete the contents of the spam folder. * +

I use hotmail and get very little spam, not even enough to be able to count. possibly 1 a week. Make sure when you sign up to outside forums etc, that you hide your email particulary public groups that run via google. * +

Good advice there from dani - I've got an 'email me' link on my webpage (the address isn't visible, just a button) and that generates a HUGE amount of spam.

10 percent of a jpeg picture can be used for to hide any file. So with a picture the size of around 400 kb a file of approximately 70kb can be hidden. That's big enough for any malware. No firewall or antivirus can detect it. If your using a computer and your running it in the admin acount your in trouble but if your a normal user the av will block it as soon as it escapes from its hiding place. Hope this help some people * +
