I would rather not do that, but if spam keeps coming in at the rate it has I will do it. It is nice to know that option is there. In the mean time the ignore button is being used for all it's worth.
I used to get a lot of spam on ICQ, until one day this link came across also: »www.binaryresearch.net/blockme/ I did some of the things suggested and the spam was basically gone after that.
