SpamBurner is more than a spam filtering tool, it is also a great e-mail reader, which can help protect you from e-mail based viruses as well (as it allows viewing of messages in text form, even if the message has complex HTML and Javascript coding! SpamBurner strips it down, and makes it readable -- plus, if you have Microsoft's Outlook or Outlook Express installed on your Système, you can conveniently open the message with Microsoft's e-mail viewer from within SpamBurner if you want to see the HTML code, pictures, etc... without having to Télécharger the message into your e-mail program's inbox! ...so if it's spam, it won't even have a chance to clutter up your e-mail.)

SpamBurner supports the POP3 e-mail protocol, will work through most types of proxies, and supports an unlimited number of e-mail accounts. It also works with Yahoo! Mail and other web-mail services that offer a POP3 capability. It can also clean up offline e-mail in Qualcomm Eudora and Microsoft Outlook e-mail programs.

SpamBurner also has a really powerful WHOIS-Lookup feature (we call it AutoWHOIS), which lets you do WHOIS lookups from any hostname OR IP address -- it also is able to auto-detect the appropriate WHOIS servers, and it is integrated with SpamBurner's message viewer -- you select the part of the message headers you want to do a WHOIS on, and right-click, then click WHOIS. AutoWHOIS also supports proxy servers.
