When running Windows trying to defeat these things is HOPELESS! Microsoft wants it this way. When the third party sources find ways to block it Microsoft will release a SECURITY PATCH and undo it. I was running Norton AntiSpam and I got a notice from MSN that I need to update my Windows installation. After I did the update the Norton AntiSpam did not function. Even reinstalling the Norton software did not work.
