Hmm.

You have missed out one other *major* noise generater: The Internet!

My solution for 'dealing' with the "noise of the net":

1) Use Firefox (@ Firefox - Rediscover the Web )

2) Install the Ad-Block Extension (@ mozdev.org - adblock: index )

3) Install the FiltersetG Ad-Block list (plain text file import into the Ad-Block extension, linky @ Index of /filtersetg - NOTE THAT THIS BLOCKS **ALL*** ADS... Even... Eh... The ones on this site. However, you might need to use Ad-Block and make custom filters for other sites/strange names as well...)

4) Install the Greasemonkey Extension (@ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748 ).

5) Use the custom Greasemonkey scripts of (well... No particular ones. Do some searches and find what you like!

).

Cheers!
