Happy Labor Day! Ways to Save on Your Labor!

Fri, 03 Sep 2010 18:25:44 +0000

The answer in two words – avoid spam!

How can you avoid spam when everyday you are bombarded with useless emails? How does that happen?

Let’s examine your email habits. Guard your real inbox address and give it out selectively. Use free web addresses (gmail or hotmail) for merchants. If it gets spammed DROP IT! If you don’t want to hear from a website again use a fake email address when filling out forms. When filling out guest books, contact lists, chat room and such, use that gmail/hotmail address. When you do buy something on line opt out of everything that you do not want to receive. DO NOT ANSWER SPAM, EVER! Use a spam filter; there are plenty that work well.

So how does that relate to your labor? How much time do you spend in your real inbox sifting through unwanted mail? Have you had to close your real email address and inform people of the change because you were spammed? Taking a few precautionary steps can save you time and your labor.

Computer Security

Fri, 20 Aug 2010 17:07:26 +0000

Intel will pay about 7.7 billion to buy McAfee. What do you use for your computer secruity? Do you use anything? Computer virus, spam, identity theft via the computer and many other computer threats can make people leary of using the computer at all. I probably over use security. Better safe than sorry idea. But that does not mean I am protected. Someone could steal my computer; it could be that simple. So what do you do? If you are a business or a home owner there are endorsements that can be added to your policy for identity theft, computer viruses etc. Contact your customer service agent or your agent and ask what’s available for you. Remember in the infamous words of Hill Street Blues, “Let’s Be Careful Out There.”
