KB969376 installed properly. If it didn't, we might be able to help you with that. However, since installing the Outlook 2003 Junk E-mail Filter update caused your "spam filter" (whatever that may be) not to work, it's an Outlook problem. As such, you should post about it in an OL-specific newsgroup, Willem. I'll lead the way by crossposting this reply to OL General and OL Third-party Utilities newsgroups. If you're using a third-party anti-spam application, you may want to disable/uninstall it & rely on OL's native Junk Mail filtering. If not, decline any further Junk E-mail Filter updates and rely on your anti-spam app.
