there should be a toolbar with two small buttons installed. says cloudmark with block and unblock next to it. right click on cloudmark and do "run spamnet" for spam you already have in folders.

you may need to restart outlook.

I have been using this program for a few months now, and I can say it is quite good, it has never filtered an important mail into the spam folder, and is 90% accurate in detecting spam. YMMV but I think this is a great little programs

I haven't had much luck with it. Maybe my corporate firewall foils its ability to work. I think it worked better a few revisions ago. It used to can like 15 spams a day, now it only gets 4 and the rest stay in my inbox.

spam is email that goes to your inbox, popups are ads that well, pop up.
