emails programs

Hi everyone i notice more and more alot of friends use hotmail yahoo instead of there pop..outlook is it safer too? out of hotmail or yahoo which is better? do u get less viruses etc..using webbased thanks md

 

many web-based mail will scan attachments for viruses, but u should still be careful and use ur own AV to scan them too. i like yahoo better than hotmail because i feel the spam blockers are more effective. ive never used email programs (except once to test yahoopops).

 

I just use gmail and a seperate AV to scan my email.

 

I do use several, like Gmail, Safe-Mail, FastMail (IMAP) and POP3 provided by my ISP.

- Safe-mail is a FREE high security web-based e-mail system.
- FastMail: Advanced spam and Virus protection

All are downloaded through my email client, but still scanned by KAV.
Never received a virus.

 

Every mail solution is safer then using Outlook with POP
