Norton Anti-Spam Alternative

I read a couple of reviews and decided on Norton Internet Security Suite in order to deal with my growing spam issue on my home computers. Once I installed on the computer downstairs all options appeared to be working well however, on the machine upstairs I could never get the full system scanner to scan my system.

So, the long and short of it is this. What open source (free) software can I use to combat my spam problem that is not a resource hog.

Thanks.

I'd personally get rid of NIS and use an email provider that has server side spam filtering.

What alternatives are there if your provider does not provide server-side spam?
