Disposable email tips up

Nyms allows users to create anonymous (surprised?) and disposable email addresses to work as a buffer against spam, worms, viruses, phishing scams and so on. Having created a Nyms email address, whenever there is incoming mail, users are allowed full control over it, the makers reckon.

Users will be able to detect where the spam is coming from - and when a user has determined that an address is being shared with spammers, says Anonymizer, they can deactivate the Nyms account and stop their inbox from going spamtastic.

Anonymizer's Nyms program redirects all incoming mail to a user's primary address, making it simpler than having to manage two, three or four email accounts.

If you're interested, Nyms is available for an annual subscription of $19.99 and can be downloaded from the Anonymizer website. Also available for download is the Safe Surfing Suite which includes Nyms, Anonymous Surfing, Anonymizer Digital Shredder and Anonymizer Anti-Spyware, and is available for $49.99. µ
