I've had pretty good luck with MT-NewsWatcher, a freeware Mac newsreader 
that performs Bayesian spam filtering.  Thunderbird's Usenet reader also 
offers Bayesian filtering, which presumably works just as well for 
classifying Usenet spam as it does at handling email spam.

So download a "real" NNTP client for whatever platform you're on and 
give its spam filter a shot; clearly Google is not interested in 
fighting spam itself.
