You can go to your mail Options page and click on Spam Protection then select the Immediately delete these messages upon receipt. That way you won't be bothered with any spam mail.
I had this problem coming into my bulk mail and sometimes it would get in my in box. I would never go to a nasty web site for any reason, so I just went in and had them to delete it as soon as it comes in. It has been so great this past two weeks with no bulk mail at all. I always thought if I died my friends would think I was a porn queen if they saw all of the things on my computer. ha
at this point you are lost. drop the email address.
you can try to unsubscrip from it. depending on the type of spam it might work. pointless though, you are beyond the point of fixing it.
go to www.godaddy.com. pay 10 bucks a year for ur own email address. and do not give it to anyone you dont trust.
open another webmail account, hotmail, yahoo, watever. and use this email address to test people. if you sign up for something that you dont knwo if you can trust. use hte webmail to test it.
Yahoo! Mail is committed to eliminating spam and offers several tools to help you keep spam out of your inbox. Yahoo! has consolidated several of these tools under the "This is Spam" link next to the From: address in every message.
The most effective way to prevent spam from entering your inbox is to use SpamGuard. Help increase SpamGuard's effectiveness by sending examples of spam to Yahoo! to review. Yahoo! will use the messages you send using the "Spam" button to constantly improve the SpamGuard technology.
Yahoo! Mail offers you the ability to create filters for your account. You can create filters to deliver emails to a special folder or to the Trash that:
contain specific words or phrases
are from a sender's domain
containing other characteristics you find in spam
Yahoo! Mail allows you to prevent future email from a specific email address from being delivered to you at all. Note that many spammers frequently change their email address to avoid this technique.
You can choose how long you want to keep messages in your Bulk Mail Folder. You can choose to drop all messages in your Bulk Mail Folder or keep messages for 1 week, 2 weeks or 1 month. The default is one month.

Here you will have the following two choices:
"Immediately delete these messages upon receipt".
"Save these messages in the Bulk folder" and select the desired timeframe from the drop down menu.
Important: Occasionally, valid email messages may be perceived as spam and delivered to the Bulk folder. Please note that if you select this option, you will not have an opportunity to review the messages in your Bulk folder before they are deleted.

Outside of the specific tools that Yahoo! Mail offers:
Never respond to unsolicited email (i.e., spam). To the individuals who send spam, one response or "hit" among thousands of mailings is enough to justify the practice. \
Never respond to the spam email's instructions to reply with the word "remove" unless you trust the company sending the email. This is a ploy to get you to react to the email and will alert the sender that your email address is open and available to receive mail, which greatly increases its value. If you reply, your address may be placed on more lists, resulting in more spam.
Never click on a URL or web site address listed within a spam email. This could alert the site to the validity of your email address, potentially resulting in more spam.
Never sign up with sites that promise to remove your name from spam lists.
Although some of these sites may be legitimate, more often than not, they are address collectors. The legitimate sites are ignored (or exploited) by the spammers, and the address collection sites are owned by spammers. In both cases, your address is recorded and valued more highly because you have just identified that your address is active.

Just delete the stuff in the spam box and don't look at it; looking at spam is a great way to get a virus.

You can't. Just stop looking into the spam box if you don't like seeing them. The spam box will empty itself.

You have to make a new email address, or buy software to stop the spam.
