 It depends on how public your screen names are. Mine are all over the web (I'm an IT consultant) and get picked up by spambots. If you keep your names private, then you should be fine. I have an AIM account that I use for my home that is an internal IM network. The name never leaves the house, and I haven't gotten spam on it for nearly 4 years now.
