   If you keep using Google Groups, there's really no defense, since they   
   offer no filtering capability and they themselves are the primary   
   source of the spam. The best solution is to use a "real" newsreader   
   that allows you to create filters/killfiles and to use a "real" Usenet   
   service that also tries to filter out spam.
