Norton AntiSpam 2004

Norton AntiSpam 2004 works with Outlook, Outlook Express or Eudora and sifts through your emails for anything offensive.

Once installed, a new folder for spam is created in your email program and an extra button appears in the toolbar. You use this to tell AntiSpam whether an email is spam or not, empty the spam folder and open the Options window.

A pop-up blocker and ad blocker are also included, both of which worked well. However, AntiSpam 2004 let through some spam with fairly obvious subject lines.

The greatest disadvantage with AntiSpam is that spam has to enter your inbox before it can be removed. Online services such as Bopspam capture spam before it gets that far, which is a bonus if you are on a dial-up connection or have a limit on what you can download.
