I have been subscribed to upwards of 20 yahoo groups at one time for many months at a time. I have had none of those problems, but I do have a very good anti-virus and anti-spam barrier. There are some groups that have been abandoned (no owner or moderators), and those groups can be rampant with spam. For those groups I read them only on the web and do not have messages delivered to my inbox. In fact, because yahoo groups do have archives, I mainly now read them on the web only, it makes no sense to have tons of messages coming to my computer, with possible attendant risks, when I can read them online, and can refer to group archives as needed.

Dear Hank:
Yep and if you use yahoo - they spam you really bad, AND somehow - not sure how, but they get ahold of your primary email and I had a virus almost get me about 3 - 4 years ago. They almost wiped me out at one point - so I no longer subscribe to any yahoo newsgroups...
