By visiting certain sites (Hotels, Shopping, etc etc ) and (I think) by clicking on "understand and agree to terms of agreement" I keep getting unwanted mails from these sites. I have put them in "Block senders list" but I still have to eventually delete them. Is here any way to stop these types of unwanted emails? Thanks in advance.

You are probably getting emails, because you gave it a certains sites. Think about it ever give your addy to get something free or to join a club, etc.
Dont give your address, do what I do. I have a spam address. It online and I could forget about it. If I want some information, but have to give my addy, I give the spam addy.
You do not have to do this with reputable addy, such as your bank, electric company, cable company etc. Just at those sites you do not know. Want to know how much unwanted mail, I get, none?
I is unlikely that because you visit a site, they can pick up your addy.

I've been there before but if you want to clean up your junk email you should less worry about it if you use free email service such as Gmail (Google) or Hotmail (Microsoft) because they have a great spam filter and for my advice how about making new one that is absolutely clean and don't close your previous email account let it eat spam ! but inform to every site or forum by your approval that you have change email address and put the new one to the sites you trusted OR you can try this mail :D that made for SPAM Mailinator - Let Them Eat Spam! this should help you to keep those spams away of your entire life g'luck:D

And one of the things that, unfortunately, you DON'T want to do, is to click on any unknown site's link that says something like, "If you want to be deleted from these emails, click here." Most often, you will get additional spam from clicking those links, rather than stopping it!
(Fortunately, that doesn't apply to Vista Forums/Windows 7 Forums, because they are very, very reliable!)
