B****y spammers. Is there anything we can do to stop these spammers?

They seem to send them via a picture rather than text so the spam filters do not pick up on it, there is also text usually something from Harry potter...wierd hey :shock:

If anyone has any ideas, I would like to stop this crap coming through my mail box.

I use 2 different accounts.
one address through Mozilla Thunderbird, on which I get NO spam
another address through MS Outlook, which I get tons of spam, but I only check that once a week, and just delete nearly everything.

My Yahoo one is great for sorting the spam out but my outlook one is crap.
