I tried it once over, i could not send any emails from it so i uninstalled it.

smicer07 · 15-09-2005, 23:49

I heard it installed spyware, but don't quote me on that.

No, it is not. IncrediMail does not install any PC surveillance tools, capture keystrokes, log your communications, etc. Our business and revenue model has nothing to do with using your personal information in a harmful or deceitful manner. In fact, the IncrediMail team is adamantly against that kind of behavior and therefore, does not violate the privacy policy and agreement with our customers.

Yep very intrusive i believe, and uninstalling it is a pain, uninstall on boot up worked for me.

Don't install unless you want trouble, like Chirs says stick with Microsoft stuff.

Hi

Ihave used it for the last two years and never had no problems at alland its real easy to set it up also.

Mal · 16-09-2005, 18:40

I have used a version of it, years ago. It was not very good. I remember this going, which "supposed" to be in their t&c's. From the privacy link that Wayne gave, it looks like they may have changed that

Chimaera · 16-09-2005, 18:42

I installed it and then couldn't get rid of it - full of spyware IIRC but that could have changed.

Angua · 16-09-2005, 18:43

Used it for years and never had any problems. I do run the premium version though.

I've used it in the past, its an ok ish prog with some good notification types, I read on another forum in the small print of Incredimail it says that they own your emails and any content within them, so if your planning on sending any

confidential material

then this is probably not for you, I'll try and dig the link out when I get home.
