I have Outlook Express e-mail, Norton Antivirus 2004, and Spy Sweeper. (This will all come in handy in a sec) Lately people (including answerpool.com have been trying to e-mail me only to have the e-mails returned to them because of a "spam blocker". I don't know how, but I guess when they use a personal instead of a company address, they can get through. Here's the thing, I've never had spam blocker before, this stuff started happening a couple months ago, and I hadn't changed any setting or gotten any new software or anything. I need to turn this spam blocker off, but I don't know where it is. I've searched my computer for any files or folders containing the word "spam", but none exist. I've also checked Norton Anti-V, but no spam block there. I've checked Spy Sweeper too, and that doesn't have anything to do with e-mail, it's for spyware and adware, so that's not it. Someone please help me with my computer that has a mind of it's own. Thanks!
