  Seriously, there are two causes of spam. Get them and you end the spam. The first cause is the business selling via spam. Come down on enough peddlers and spam revenues dry up. The second cause is the large number of Windows computers still attached to the network. Either disconnect them or, wiser, wipe them and replace with an OS designed for networked environments. The linux distros top the list, but there are others. That would have a side benefit of eliminating most if not all of the malware and be in practice an economic boost.
