    The people comatting spam are nearly all American? Says who?

    It has been suggested that even disabling Cookies won't help: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/344992 As I understand it, this is because in Safari disabling cookies merely prevents creation of new cookies and not access to old ones. Therefore you should delete all cookies first.

    No you're not. You get a page with QuickTime in the middle and a link to download QuickTime...
