My solution to spam is that I registered my own domain (for example mydomain.com) and got a 'star' account.
Now any email to mydomain.com goes into one pop3 box.
When I signup for something on cnet, I use cnet@mydomain.com. For yahoo, I use yahoo@mydomain.com. It's interesting, but sometimes it lets me see who is selling my addresses.
I only ever check the box when I'm expecting something--like a verification URL or something. Other than that, I dump it daily.
Only a few friends have my real address and it only gets a handful of spam every day.

Does anyone remember the amount of space?
Yeah, but who doesn't have broadband these days? :-)
Ooh! Me! Right here!
I don't have high speed.
I work for an internet provider, and I connect at 33.6
Damn stupid east bumfuck town!
unless they've been digitally editing stuff out, like in Back to the Future.
Oh damn. Don't tell me they cut out "THE LIBIANS"!
That was one of the two lines I could quote from Back to the Future...
That and "One point twenty-one gigawatts"...
Yeah--but a household lock is made to keep honest people honest.
If you really wanted security you wouldn't be using a household lock/deadbold and a door with windows...
What about the answer to the question of Life, the Universe, and Everything?
