I use Linux
I have to agree with some of the others here. I do not see where Linux help resolve the spam issue. You can contrlo spam in a number of ways, but the methods are non-OS specific.

If you wanted to make the case that Linux Patches are a lot less likely to break third part spam filters, I could follow you into that war, but to just say the Linux controls spam by allowing modular spam control components, I can't stand by you on that one. MS allows third party spam control as well. MS has no current IE vs Netscape or WMP vs Real type war going on with spam filters, so I fail to see you point. You will have to not say it slower, but actually back it up with facts.
