   I use the Free versions of Antivirus, Malware Dectectors, Mailwasher.   
   You already know I'm a cheap LID.   
   Others here probably know that too.

   "My thoughts" about doing that is that Mailwasher Free just tells the Webmail   
   Server only to DELETE the Email instead of letting the Webmail Server MARK   
   that one as SPAM and send it to the Email Accounts SPAM BOX, so the Webmail   
   Server CAN REMEMBER what i think it should do to the message so Mailwasher   
   won't even see it.   
      
   That is why I go to Webmail and tell it what it should do with future   
   messages sent from THAT Address.   
      
   Mailwasher Free telling WebMail to Delete the Email each time it sees one   
   from THAT Address, just because that Address is in its SPAM or Black List(s)   
   to me is making Mailwasher Free have to work overtime.   
      
   My method is to have those Emails never being been sent to Mailwasher free   
   again for it to see one from that Address anymore.   
      
   Of course Mailwasher does remember how I marked the Email and most probably   
   sends it to its Black List or SPAM List the first time I mark it as unwanted   
   so I wouldn't see it when I check Email with Mailwasher Free.   
      
   It just tells the Webmail Server to DELETE the message. OVER AND OVER...

   I hope You never get BIT doing that.   
      
   I rather avoid the chance of what money I have going somewhere I didn't want

    DS>   Both Quarterdeck, who did QEMM and DESQView...and TeleGraphix, who

   I also ran DOS 5.0 and used QEMM.   
   Years later I was at a Salvation Army Thrift Store and bought a CD that had   
   IBM DOS 7 on it.   
      
   I think I still used QEMM after installing DOS 7 on the pc.   
      
   I didn't remove MS DOS 5.0, I figured if I entered a Command, that IBM DOS 7   
   would use its version of the Command and if still wanted to use DOSSHELL or   
   another Command that wasn't in IBM's DOS 7 that I could do that since the   
   DOS 5.0 files still were on the pc.
