how do I stop spam?

I block spam e-mails and IPs that post spam, yet I still get flooded by what looks like the same IPs. Is there any way to stop this from happening? I thought when ya block an IP, they can no longer access a site or post on a forum.

Create a new, personal email account and only give the address to family members and very close friends.

I can honestly say that I have never received spam when using my main, personal email account.
