You are correct, but as has been pointed out, tech support do not always get 
things right.
I do have a spam filter - tech said that with the PCGuard version I have 
there is no antispam? but to get it I would have to upgrade my services.
Their web shows no version on the download of PCG and I could find no 
suggestion I would get a better security prog than I am getting already, 
with a higher B band connection.
Nor could the tech I spoke to explain other anomalies.
But tomorrow may yield a result.
