    Theres plenty available these days. Windows Defender, Ad-Aware and Spybot are the most common ones.

    Take your pick! :D

    But as said above, Spybot, Windows Defender and Ad-Aware are the most common, mostly because they are free!

    Hope this helps...

    Yes but these are spyware! I am on about an spam email filter! Does spybot have this functionality?

    Thunderbird has junk controls that you can alter yourself.

    Cloudmark, http://www.cloudmark.com/?rc=g2m94 . Not free but excellent, this is the only anti-malware app. I pay for and with the amount of time it saves me it's well worth it.

    I used to use SpamBayes for Outlook. It was pretty good.

    Seems to be confusion here. Spam and malware are not the same thing. And Spamware is kind of a hybrid.

    For Spam - Thunderbird - the filters are excellent and they learn from the Junk button. If that's not an option then I can't recommend Mailwasher enough. Extremely powerful and intuitive. And it works with any email app.

    In a nutshell - Mailwasher is your mail client. Only when it's cleaned out all the crap does it send it to whatever client you use. It does it server side too so most spam isn't even downloaded and wasting your valuable bandwidth.
