How to stop spam kind of email that seems to have your address?

I get about 15-20 not so nice kind of email in my bulk every day. I always just delete them, and never open them. I really want them to go away, any suggestions? I am afraid to open them in case of a virus or something. The computer I use is also used for my husband’s business stuff, so I really don’t want to take any chances of messing things up. any real help would be greatly appreciated.
Firewalls and Anti-Spyware.following up on a previously asked question, I have a few more?

1) My PC came with Webroot and Norton installed (about a year ago and it’s time to renew). Is there an advantage to buying the software vs downloading it? Would/Will I still have to renew again after a year if I went and bought it?
2) When comparing what you get for free vs. what you pay for, does having a firewall mean you have all the Anti stuff (Virus, Spam, Spy-Ware) by default and what really is the distinction?
Free Anti-spam softwares - where?

I bought Norton Antivirus 2007 a few months ago and installed in my HP XP Notebook. In testing TuneUp Utilities 2007 recently, I am advised that there is no Anti-Spam software in my computer. To get the Anti-Spam facilities, I have to pay for such.
My questions are: (1) Is it true that Norton does not have Anti-spam function? (2) Where can I get a FREE anti-spam software? (3) Can I install this Anti-spam software and have them running parallel in my computer? (4) If not, then what must I do? Thanks.

How do I keep this from popping up ?

I keep getting this pop up window without even opening my browser… it shows as
VirusRemover2008

It looks like one of those where they try to trick you into signing up for some anti virus you dont even need, how can I get rid of this ? has anyone ever had this problem before ? I dont have an anti virus currently so I know this could be an issue but i can also tell the difference between a legit offer and a spam pop up and I know thats what this is….
Are there any safe, free antivirus programs I can install online? I’ve heard that WinAntiSpyware is a scam.

I have McAfee but it’s so expensive, I’d rather find something cheaper. I’m scared to just go download an anti-virus program though because of malware programs - the programs that look authentic but then either spam or virus you. Does anyone know a safe, authentic program? Anti-hacking software would be appreciated, too.
