incredimail

Anyone vtry this or use this?

It only works if you enable HTML view in Outlook Express and that is not a safe thing to do as even opening an infected email can attempt to download its malware payload :o

If a user is on dial-up then all of the baggage images that come with Incredimail have to be downloaded to be displayed and thus stopping all further emails from being downloaded.

The first time you see an Incredimail email you might think it is cute but it wears thin after a short time plus it includes a spam trailer that advertises its download location.

ya a few of my clients use Incredimail .. i hate it .. to much noise and colour and crap .. use Thunderbird .. www.mozilla.com.

.. use Thunderbird .. www.mozilla.com.

Agreed.

5 Simple Rules to avoid SCD (Slow Computer Disease)

I've written about this before, but it bears repeating on occasion with new visitors to our site and long time visitors who

haven't learned yet. The advice is simple: DO NOT DOWNLOAD FREE SCREENSAVERS, EMAIL PROGRAMS (Incredimail, etc), GAMES from

the Internet. Unless you are WELL versed in the origin of these items, they can easily destroy your computer's ability to

compute.

True, Incredimail is not full of viruses or spyware, but it is one of the most obnoxious programs you can install on your

computer.

One type of obnoxious-ware is called Adware - this is software that pretends to be practical but instead is used to force you

and others to see advertising. This is exactly what Incredimail does. At the bottom of every email is an ad for Incredimail.

Even that isn't that bad though. What is really irritating about Incredimail is how your messages come across to people who

can't read HTML email. The message is full of garbage and often the happy faces and other symbols come through as attachments

that can't be opened.

These recipients then call Rick and I and spend good money trying to figure out why they can't open .eml files that are sent ,by Incredimail.

Now, decide that you don't want to use Incredimail and try to switch to something else. You will quickly find that your

messages and address book are held captive by the Incredimail software.

It is a high price to pay for cute happy faces in your messages. :P:mellow:
