Spam from Russia

I am being spammed continuously from Russia.
I receive private messages offering me cracked software.
I don't really understand them because they are in russian!
How can I stop them please?

The spams I'm getting are in English, but they're no less annoying. I have received 3 of them in the past week promoting a music downloading service.

I received the message below from:
http://forum.100webspace.com/profile.ph ... le&u=66805

Please remove this fake person. Please also try to make it a little harder for these guys to get in here. They are pretty lame thinking that any of us will fall for this crap.

Thanks,

Clif
