So am I Doug. That's the reason for my post a few up there
Open file, run it, and nothing happens. Sux when these here darn computers run 50000 less programs than windows, but it is cool when all 50000 of those are virii
Filters take care of spam fairly well. Server based filters are cool when you run your own server.

THE PAY FOR THE SOFTWARE METHOD
Used to work for this company a few years back:
www.surfcontrol.com
stuff worked pretty good, and I see my old boss on the local silly-con valley tech show about once a month since spam and virii are such a big deal nowadays.
THE FREE WAY TO DO IT METHOD
Here is a good quick tutorial, if you run on a *nix based system (price is right) and procmail.

And then add in this if ya want:
http://www.spamassassin.org/index.html
Anyhow, those are the two better methods I'd recommend for relative ease. Depending on what mail server you use, you may be able to add in a simple server based blacklist.
