I'll preface this review with the statement that I work at an IT company based in Georgia. Today was my very first encounter with Incredimail as prior to this day I'd not heard of such a program. We needed to replace an old computer with a new one and one of the programs that apparently needed to be put on the new machine was Incredimail. This machine was a new Optiplex 960 machine and had never had a single program besides Microsoft Office package loaded onto it. We loaded up incredimail on the box and immediately regretted the mistake. The computer became so bogged down that the core 2 duo processor inside ground to a screeching halt and the program refused to take the OE data. This crashed to program, which normally would have been a blessing, except that after this, the computer became so unresponsive that it had to be restarted. Incredimail upon startup runs such a heavy system process that it bogs a computer down as much as or more than heavy virus software. No mail service should bog down a system as much as this does. After the machine runs for about ten minutes, it'll function like a normal service and it even took the files, but our antivirus software tagged it as a virus and it runs too many programs in the background for me to give it my blessing. I don't trust it.
