From: Al Campagna on 22 Apr 2010 09:07 For spam control. Actually, I just switched over to Spamihilator, after running into this minor bug. Why? Is there a problem with MailWasher?

From: Unknown on 22 Apr 2010 10:39 The more trash you install on any computer the more prone it is to various types of failures. Also the more non Microsoft programs you install the more prone to problems. Investigate MSE, if you like it install it and try it out. You do not need Norton, Semantics, MailWasher, Spamihilator (if that's how it's spelled) and all that other trash.
