On my personal .co.uk accounts I have chosen to withold my address from whois searches. Unfortunately, I can't do this with .com, .org, .biz, .net etc.

I'm really not happy about having my address visible to everyone. I don't want to break the law, but is there anyway I can stop my address from being visible on whois searches? This would be for privacy/spam protection purposes only. Is it legal to put a c/o my isp for example? Or are there any companies out there who will let me use their address for whois purposes (in exchange for a small fee)?
