The spam is a secondary issue, a lot of it is my own fault I'm sure, leaving my email address where I shouldn't.

It's mostly the treatment from my ISP. When I call up it usually goes something like "you're modem is too old" and then I tell them I only have problems on Sundays, sometimes Saturdays, then I get "well maybe there is moisture on the wires" dude, it hasn't rained here in weeks---y'all should know that, and then they push DSL, which isn't even offered in my area.

Humidity can degrade performance if your phone line is old and crappy. It happened to me a few years ago, and I had the phone company come out and fix it. If that's the case, though, then you'll know it because your phone calls will have huge amounts of static.

Still, it's rare when it's only humid on Saturdays and Sundays, so I think you were right to dump them.
