Spam / Junk emails.

Question

Can someone please enlighten me as to why all of a sudden I am getting 110+ junk emails coming to my inbox. I have tightest filter on and top security installed. I delete each one every morning and mark as phishing and junk and also block them. They are back again within a couple of hours. The only thing they have in common is the address that comes up when I block them.

Can one of the many technically minded people out there tell me what the hell is going on or is it just time to give in and start over with a new email address ?.

Mickyb181&nbsp;Same issue here, I use live,com and also have my filters set so anything incoming that isn't in my allowed list goes to spam but the majority this week land in my inbox, it was the same a few weeks ago.

Thank you to everybody that has tried to help. As this and similar problems have been going on for over 6 years that I can remember it is obvious , with all the updates microsoft has done in that time , they are not interested in fixing the problems.I am beginning to wonder if they have some sort of interest in keeping the junk and spam continuing.Anyhow I have given upon trying to fix it and will just put up with the junk emails and go in every couple of days and manually block and delete them individually. Very annoying and time consuming but nothing else seems towork.Again thanks to everybody for the help.
