I spent a lot of time and wasted some money on other products before finding this. Or you can get the free open source version called Spambayes on Windows at http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/windows.html which I used prior to inboxer. Inboxer is based upon Spambayes. Spambayes works nearly as well, however with Inboxer you can whitelist trusted addresses, which means you can tune it more aggressively. After a few months of training, I rarely see spam anymore. If you don't use Outlook there is the original SpamBayes at http://spambayes.sourceforge.net which I hear is good but haven't tried it. As someone else mentioned, Popfile is highly rated also, although you have to control it through a web based interface. Basically get one with trainable Bayesian filtering, it's the only kind I found that works well as it adapts to the latest spammer techniques and to your own personal preferences.
