i wish they would but i think until the Goverment or EU force ISPs to do this then nothing will happen. I can't see NTL spending money on this or even installing anything for free unless they are forced into it.

Just think of that if all ISPs in the world had to have spam filtering then there would be no point in sending it and then the problem would go away.
Economically they are being driven to it.
Demons solution came soon after they had a massive POP server investment to deal with the increasing volumes of mail. Once the new servers were in place they put in spam trapping to reduce the volumes these servers handled thus increasing the estimated useful life (based on maximum volumes the servers could handle).
