I presume you're talking about home email (Outlook)? I do get about 1 spam a week with Outlook Express. I think Yahoo Mail is the best to filter spam without any programming on your part. I never never get any and I don't even do anything! Hotmail though, wow! Terrible! Really bad!

Windows XP doesn't have a built-in spam filter.

What e-mail client are you using?
