"Degunking Your Email, Spam, and Viruses" (Paraglyph Press), by security expert and technology pundit Jeff Duntemann, shows readers of all levels of computer proficiency how to clean up and organize their email, safeguard their systems against security threats, and reduce or eliminate spam. The book covers the latest email-based scams and schemes (such as phishing and "drive-by" installs), security technologies (such as virus and worm protection, firewalls, and removal of adware and spyware), and common-sense organization techniques for everyone.
Some of the topics covered in the book include: -Using the right email program for you -Developing good email habits -Cleaning and organizing your mailbase -How to avoid becoming a spam magnet -How to use spam filters -Protecting yourself against viruses, Trojan horses, and worms -Avoiding adware, spyware, pop-ups, and browser bugaboos -Using firewalls and antivirus software -How to recognize internet hoaxes, Nigerian "419" scams, and phishing schemes -Cleaning up after a malware attack Author Jeff Duntemann says: "If everyone just followed our simple 12-step program to organize and clean up their email, we'd all be more productive and we'd have much more free time. 'Degunking Your Email, Spam, and Viruses' will help readers reduce their aggravation levels with email--which I think is at an all-time high. There's simply no sense in wasting more time than you have to with spam, security threats, and a poorly-organized email system."
