I use Win XP Home and Outlook Express 6.00

I get continuous emails with virus attachment from fake MS disguise so
create filter to delete them from the server. I have several pcs and it is
just too time consuming to have to manually set filters on each machine. Can
someone tell me whether there is a way to save the data from my filter and
copy it into another machine?

You use either mail rules or blocked senders list. Both are in the registry.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{A GUID}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook
Express\5.0\Rules

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{A GUID}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook
Express\5.0\Block Senders

Export them to files and import on the destination PC. Don't forget to
replace GUIDS with those of target identity.
