Safety Bar

June 23, 2005 in 5 out of 5 stars, A piece of software, Spam/Spyware

What is it?

Safety Bar: A plugin software module for Outlook and Outlook Express.

Who makes it?

Cloudmark

Why is it the killerest?

Because it stops easily 99%+ of my spam. I get over 100 spam messages/day. Cloudmark catches all but maybe 1 every 2 weeks. I never see them. It's amazing. They also gear it to block fraud-oriented spam (phishing and whatnot). Bottom line, this is the solution to spam and it's a total bargain.

What could be improved?

Easier whitelisting. Plus a blacklist of my own that doesn't pertain to the whole community would be nice.

How much does it cost?

$4/mo or $40/yr -- per desktop.

If you can't afford false positives, this is the best filter out there. It's very easy to install and very easy to use. It makes spam a 100% non-issue.

5 stars.
