Yeah I tried 4 different programs but none of them were as robust as
Outlook.
Years ago I used to use Netscape Mail and I was really happy with it.
I have about 12 different email POP3 addresses now for different clients,
different websites, personal correspondences and work.
Outlook Express handles this kind of power user very efficiently. The
shareware prorams do not.
The real solution is simply to disable Contact List and Adress Book
functions in Outlook and Outlook Express. Also be sure to disable the
"Automatically put people I reply to in my address book" function.
Also be sure to install Norton Antivirus or a similar AV prgram.
Im just annoyed that I keep getting this virus sent to
static@staticbeats.com
Im not infected with it or anything and Im certainly not passing it on. I
just want to be removed from people's contact lists that's all.
