Last November, StopBadware.org released an Alert about a product that is bundled in the Early Detection Software: CyberDefender ‘Early Detection Center’ application is badware because it fails to disclose the principal and significant features of the bundled ‘MyIdentityDefender’ Internet Explorer toolbar, which monitors users’ web browsing behavior and transmits users’ URL history to CyberDefender. .... Once installed, CyberDefender Early Detection Center may exaggerate the threat of harm from certain kinds of ‘spyware infections’ in order to induce users to purchase a license for the software.

CyberDefender seems to have corrected the error and discloses this upon installation.

MyIdentityDefender is a security toolbar which works with Microsoft internet Explorer and protects against identity theft. MyIdentityDefender is free and does not require you to purchase an identity theft software package.

Try SpamFighter - it's FREE for Home use

Automatically send your SPAM to the Deleted folder (or Junk folder) using Outlook

The following example can be applied to any type of message you wish, for the purposes of this tutorial I have chosen an "***SPAM***" in the Title of the email.

Basically you want to automatically get rid of the SPAM that SpamAssassin or SpamFighter flagged.

Here's the workflow:

SPAM Email Arrives in your inbox. It's automatically flagged as SPAM. It's automatically moved to the Junk folder or Deleted folder.

FIRST ....
Inside Outlook - CLICK the following command chain:
Tools Menu > Rules and Alerts > New Rule > Click "Start From a Blank Rule"

Step One - Select "Check messages when they arrive" Click "Next"

Selecting the Conditions of the rule:
For the purposes of this we'll assume that the email subject line is "***SPAM***" but you can use To Address, from address etc.

To set the move rule up:

In the conditions box check "with specific words in the subject"

In Step Two, the rule is prebuilt. Click on the blue underlined "specific words" and type in the ***SPAM***.

Click Next.

Now we tell outlook what to do with the message.

In section One
Check "Move it to the Specified Folder" click on the blue underlined "Specified" in Section 2 and Select the "Deleted" folder.
Click on "OK"

In step two, check "Run this rule now on messages already in the Inbox"
Make sure "Turn on this rule" is checked

Click Finish

All messages in the Inbox with the words "***SPAM***" will now have been flagged with the selected flag and moved to the selected folder.

Whenever new messages come in with this rule .. they will be moved to the deleted folder!!
