I have some website spamming me with 200 to 300 emails a day, selling viagra and cialis, porn and so on. How can I stop the complete overload of my email. I'm thinking of removing the service. steve@stevepiano.com
I am getting 200 to 300 spams a day. It's glogging the emails with hundreds of viagra and porn ads. How do I block them? Get rid of the firefox?

That has nothing to do with Firefox, which doesn't even do email.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

Its not Firefox problem, its your Email program. Maybe you visited, searched or subscribed to very few of those sites and that's the reason that they keep spamming you on your email id. However you should check this:
Parental Controls

Check and tell if its working.
And you shouldn't put your email address on public forums like this one.
Most email services have a "Black List" or a "Block Sender" feature. It may take a lot of work, but eventually you can get free of them. But whatever you do, DON'T click on "Unsubscribe" on ANY of these emails. Doing so only confirms that your address is valid and you will get even more trash! Good luck! <ckd>
