You did just post in HTML, so you don't have too much to take offense at.

Sure you can.

1. Call another ISP and get service for less than $10/month (check out
www.hawkcommunications.com).
2. Go to the various sites where you've supplied an e-mail address (e.g.,
ebay) and change it to your new address.
3. E-mail your friends and family and give them your new e-mail address.
4. Maybe hold on to the AOL account for a month or two so that you can let
any stragglers know your new address
5. Cancel AOL.

You'll get rid of the spam and probably save enough in a year to buy another
Archos or at least a whopper hard drive for it.
