I use the microsoft spam filter with outlook 2007 and as spam
arrives, the JUNK folder is immediately bolded and an envelope icon
appears in the task bar.
The problem is that spam arrives every minute and as such I'd like to
avoid the aforementined when mail arrives an is considered junk.
Please advice.

Alas, the advice is "live with it." Junk E-mail messages that arrive are,
in fact, new messages, so Outlook will display the new message count to the
right of the folder and will enable the new message icon in the Notification
area. The process that notes the arrival of a new message and asserts the
notification icon most often runs before the junk filter.
