Not worth the money

I used SPAMfighter before and thought it was useful, but my isp catches more spam than SPAMfighter. Won't continue unless they improve the product.

Second to none

I am more than happy with their service. One point has arrived that I am getting 0 spam in my Inbox and a very exceptional thing that they classify as spam something that is not spam.

Я более чем счастливы с их обслуживанием. Один момент прибыли, что я получаю 0 спам в папку "Входящие" и исключительных то, что они классифицировать как спам-то, что это не спам.

Estoy más que feliz con su servicio. Ha llegado a un punto de que estoy recibiendo spam 0 en mi bandeja de entrada y una cosa muy excepcional que clasifica como spam algo que no es spam.

Reliable for me

I have had Spamfighter for about 5 years. Although on occasion I have also encountered the toolbar disappearing. On the whole I have found the software reliable. And by rebooting Windows I have always found that the toolbar reappears without any further problems. When I have needed support I have received a reply within a few hours and the support has been good and did their best to resolve any issues.

INADEQUATE SUPPORT

I've used SpamFighter Pro since December of last year. Initially, it worked fine. However, a few months ago I encountered two significant problems that remain unsolved.

1) Periodically, I lose the SpamFighter Pro toolbar which causes two problems: 1a) the program no longer filters 'blocked' domains, and 1b) I can't block 'new' spam.

NOTE: At this point, I haven't been able to resurrect SpamFighter Pro, despite following the documented procedures.

2) On both my system and my wife's, the SpamFighter 'folder' sometimes multiplies the 'identical' eMail (i.e. same date and time). When the eMails were highlighted and then deleted, the eMails multiply further: My wife's SpamFighter folder once exceeded 31,000 (yes, thousand) eMails. I was eventually able to delete these eMails, but I presently have 4,300.

ATTEMPTS TO FIX: I've been in contact with the U.S. tech support but have not been able to resolve. I've also posted my problem on SpamFighter's internet site and tried the recommended fixes to no avail.

I've also paid several hundreds of dollars with outside remote services to determine whether or not I have a virus or trojan in both systems and neither of the two services that I've used have found anything to stop my problem.

Interestingly, SpamFighter does not allow their technical staff to remotely access my computer to help find a solution. And neither their U.S. support group nor their internet-based support group ever attempts to find out whether their fixes worked.

SpamFighter

Once I "block" a specific e-mail address out, it stays out. Sometimes, I have to "unblock" other e-mail addresses, but that's not a problem. It has really cut down on some of the spam I was getting.
