worm, virus, spam filters?

Recently I have had a huge increase in Spam.

I suspect it is because I am a contact person on a couple of web sites.

I have been on a tear for the last couple of weeks trying to filter out all the key words and bad senders.

The filtering seems to be working.


Today I realized that I haven't been getting hit with contaminated emails like I was a year ago. Did something happen on the internet to filter those out? Or am I just lucky?


I use MS Outlook Express


One of the tricks I have been trying is to "Block Senderr" on every spam message. Then I go to the blocked sender page and remove the user and leave the web site. It works on most of them because they say they are from companys I never heard of.
