I was in the process of installing this when I read this on the install-continue screen.

"By clicking "Next" you agree to initiate the installation process, which will include a small piece of software used to verify your acceptance of our partners disclosures. This verification software is removed when you reboot your computer."

What disclosures??? What "partner"??? Are we installing "adware"? Not sure what's going on, but I didn't see any "disclosures," and I don't want any partners "ads" or whatever popping up on my screen.

I did NOT finish the install. I "may" install it later - I'll see what others have to say.

An other excellent tool today especially suitable for webmarketers and webmasters, exactly as yesterday.

Supports an unlimited number of subscribers, mailing lists & multiple accounts, HTML and attachments and can even generate a Web page for subscribtion and/or unsubscribtion with a powerful double opt-in confirmation script which automatically gathers new subscribers.

And, as I can see, just for once commercial use is also allowed for this GAOTD: I could not ask more....LOL!

So if you need for some reasons a program like this just grab it and please don't care about the current low and once again misleading GAOTD RATING SYSTEM based on the usefulness of the software rather than its effective capabilities.

THUMBS UP from me!!

Don't try any of this company's freeware products. They come with a ton of malware and garbageware they try to get you to install, they do not let you deselect all the malwate and they also install malware that are not even shown in their lists of garbageware and malware they want to install The one I tried-iDPhoto-crashed my computer, denied me access to make changes to msconfig, hijacked my browser homepage and search engine preference and did a totally hidden installation of relevant knowledge malware, as well as installing Babylon and some other unknown exe processes. When I tried to open system restore, the pc froze. This is windows7pc btw.

It took me numerous reboots into safe mode and ccleaner, revo uninstaller, trend micro housecall and a few other tools to finally get my pc (I hope!) clean again.

My mistake : This EULA is common with other products which are bundle with sponsors but this one is NOT.
