font-family:Arial'>I have been using Spambayes for some time now with MS
Outlook 2003 (11.8010.8107) SP2 without any problems. My OS is Windows XP
Pro with SP2. Spambayes version 1.0.4<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I recently had some adware slip into the computer which I
had cleaned out. When checking my mail I tried to use Spambayes and it
did not work. I checked to see if it was still installed as an add-in
with Outlook and at least it was still on the toolbar but checking the
Tools> options> other> advanced options (under general)> Com
add-ins, I noticed that Spambayes was unchecked . I placed the check mark in
the box, clicked OK, closed and restarted Outlook and it still did not
work. I checked following the above and the box was unchecked again.
I tried this a couple of times and still it did not work. I proceeded to
reinstall Spambayes and it still did not work. I uninstalled Spambayes
and reinstalled it and still the same results. I had the tool bar for
Spambayes but it still is not working. The Add-in Manager does not show
Spambayes but the Com Add-Ins does show the program there but still unchecked.
I repeated the above a few times with no results. Again, the program has
been working great for some time now but it has just stopped working. I
have had other hits here with adware on the computer before and it did not affect
Outlook or Spambayes. There are no traces of any BHOs or adware in the
computer at this time. Is it possible that something in the registry is
causing Spambayes to not operate? If so, how do I fix this situation?
Spambayes seems to be the only program / add-in that works with Outlook and I
would like to get it working again before my folders explode with the recent evasion
of spam with word lists in them to try to get around the filters. These
word lists in the subjects and bodies of the emails seem to be working for the spammers
lately, but your program is catching about 80 percent of the junk. Any
help would greatly be appreciated.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
