I have just tried Spamihilator. Boy I wish I hadn't!
No effect whatsoever on any email, even blatent spam. Nothing at all in training area. No changes anywhere to Outlook menus or anything else. Yet it is running.
Spamihilator changed Outlook log ons, so I can't send emails through my Access database anymore.
So I removed it - Hooray, or so I thought.
But the darn thing has changed my Outlook 2010 log on - either the username or password. Now, when I open Outlook I get a log on dialog. Problem is, the username and password I have been using for the last 6 years now won't work.
Now every minute that Outlook is open (which is all the time) I get the stupid Outlook dialog asking for my log on info. This pops up on top of whatever I am working on.
Accessing their web support forum is difficult as even the English forum has all its headings, instructions and buttons in German.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get out of this?
Never, ever, ever, ever use Spamihilator

I would give System Restore a run...

For Win 7: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ZA/wind ... em-restore

Re: Never, ever, ever, ever use Spamihilator
I agree with Rudi, Peter, system restore is the first thing to try.
I notice you posted a similar warning on Michel Kraemer's board. Considering that in Europe the kids are learning English from Kindergarden onwards, you'd expect the website to be a bit more international !

On a lighter note, I make a point of not installing software I cannot pronounce

Good one Rudi.
System restore worked. I had to go back 4 days, but at least everything is working.
Thanks guys
