Few days ago I've got an email from my provider informing mi that, a lot of spam is send from my address and threatening to block mi if I do not remedy this. I've spoken to their support team and they advised mi to change to another browser since they think it is the problem. I don't know what to do, being the Firefox user for more then 20 years I'm very reluctant to change. Any advice will be highly appropriated.

Best regards A.Baranski

It must be a very large number if your provider is telling you. You can advise them that you have no control over who sends you anything.

Now as to the problem. Who is sending these mailings? Are they from the same source? Note: Some know how to disguise where the mailing are from. Even to the point of making you think they are from official locations.

If there are any links in the messages, where do they go?
