Zone Alarm sets up a folder in Outlook and dumps the spam emails in a 
"Phishing Mail" folder and or "Junk Mail" folder. I set it up 
to automatically delete when I close Outlook. 100% better than using Norton.

I think the full name is Zone Alarm Security Suite.

Yeah, I used Yahoo mail during Katrina which worked fine except for the few 
hundred spam emails that Yahoo's filter ignores.
