I keep getting junk email that I find very offensive and pornographic. Is
there some way that I can prevent this stuff from getting onto my computer?

The first way is not to post your real email address on usenet.
 
Hi Brian,

If you have Outlook 2003, you can block the specific sender's address of
the offensive e-mail. Just right-click on the message, then click on the
Junk E-mail listing, then click on "Add Sender to Blocked Sender's List."
You can also click on Tools, Options, then click on the Junk E-mail button
under the Preferences tab. There you can adjust the settings for the level
of junk e-mail protection you want to prevent further offensive e-mail from
other senders.

Hope this helps!

Only ways I know of are-
A. block the addresses as you recieve them,
or
B. Set up a firewall
or
C. - Set upp mail assistant to auto delete any emails with
certain content.
Good luck!!!
