We subscribe to Norton's virus filtering, which also works pretty good. 
Even better, my isp has free spam filtering! Wonderful feature. Ours 
stops better than 90% of the spam. Even when we've got a lot of letters 
on TheForge, my email runs 1/3 spam. I log on to a web page a couple of 
times a week to verify it's all spam and delete it.
