Personally I have enough going on such that spam and cold calls are not a problem. I've pretty much resigned myself to the fact that this is the price of doing business online. Perhaps some might say that's a defeatist attitude. I'd counter it's realistic. With a good set of filters and caller ID, this can become a very manageable problem. I must also say that I have don't necessarily consider every unsolicited contact to be spam. My job is security. I would rather somebody target me for information about a product, that relates to security, than all the cruft about penny stocks, OEM software, and cheap drugs. -- Roger A.
