History is replete with examples.  From the Internet Worm to Code Red, 
consumers do install software when they perceive either a threat or a 
benefit.  Getting rid of spam is a HUGE benefit.  Heck.  What I've found 
so amusing is that people seem to upgrade their Microsoft systems just 
'cause, with no perceived benefit, but merely protecting from Bit Rot.
