You might try the win version of this:

http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/

You have to teach it identifying about 50-100 meassages of spam and 50-100 messages 
of ham. I have a one of these on my [non-win] email program, and it catches over 
95% of the incoming spam. It's sent automatically to the trash folder, where I look 
to be sure it hasn't accidentally mislabled a ham message as spam before emtying 
the trash.
