Dammit, I didn't realize I messed up and didn't preview. Here's the edited version, with some new links.
You write too long for me to keep track, so bear with me.
If you use firefox, mostly from the same computers, you might be interested in this extension: Bookmarks Synchronizer, and using the web-browse feature. Another alternative is weblog software such as WordPress that you can customize to make quick bookmarks. If you're just saving bookmarks for yourself for later, I actually used to just draft emails in gmail and organize them later.
If you use Outlook/OE, try Spam Bayes. I've not used it myself, but I've heard good things. Or if you only care about it's emailing capabilities, you might want to switch to Thunderbird - it is pretty smart about spam. Either way, you have to make sure that you train your spam filter - and that means spending a week telling it when it gets things wrong AND when it gets things right.
I would totally read actuarial tables for flood insurance. Insurance is cool, especially if you're not on the crappy end of it, because ideally it's all about finding that perfect balance where everyone's happy. Plus, if you can pretend no one gets hurt from flooding, it's also neat because there's all this rising water and geographical changes. I'm with you on that. However, I can never remember book names and I am refusing to get out of bed, so you get no recs from me.

I like Zone Alarm. My brother has been using Sunbelt Kerio Personal Firewall and has been really pleased with it.
