Windows Tools/Utilities

• Converber - This is the best conversion tool I have ever seen!
• Mailwasher - This is a tool that I use every day, and I wouldn’t want to be without. It lets you download just the headers of your email messages, so you can see what is there and make the decision as to what to keep and what to delete before you download the whole email. This is great for thwarting potential viruses, since you aren’t downloading the attachment. Also though, the best feature is that for spam, you can send back a fake bounce message, as if your email address was not valid. In many cases, this helps to get spammers to quit sending you spam in the first place. In my experience, it didn’t make all spam go away, but it sure cut down on it a lot. This is a must have for me.
