1.0 out of 5 stars Still getting Spammed, July 14, 2003
By 
Carol O'Brien (Worcester, Massachusetts United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Safeworld: Spam & Pop-Up Blocker (CD-ROM)
I purchased this software hoping to eliminate the sexually oriented pop-ups that I keep seeing on my desktop PC. After I installed it, it did nothing but slow up my log-in. I didn't understand the activation process; it appeared that it was asking me to subscribe to a monthly service in order to stop the pop-ups (which confused me because that's what I though this software was for. The pop-ups keep coming.

I e-mailed for support (not 24/7 for calls) and was requested to send them a diagnostic report following their instructions and using a utility that was included. I did that and sent it back to them, and I'm still waiting to hear back.

Surely there must be a better deal than this out there.

I never got this program to work. I have emailed Safeworld twice in four weeks and have not received any type a response. What a waste of $30!!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Stay clear of Safeworld, October 27, 2003
This review is from: Safeworld: Spam & Pop-Up Blocker (CD-ROM)
This Spam and Pop-Up Blocker product is bad. It only cut in half the amount of pop-ups. It refuses to allow any gameplay whatsoever. Like a virus, it cannot be removed. Technical support is non-existant. You and your computer would be better off burning your money as opposed to buying any Safeworld product.

This review is from: Safeworld: Spam & Pop-Up Blocker (CD-ROM)
Every since I loaded this program I have had problem,the pop-up part never did work. I cannot shut down my computer unless I activate Windows Task Master and end the Safeworld problem,I have tried every thing to unstall the program, after I got it off my desktop I unstalled it from add/remove(control panel)and it still restrick my shutdown,it's still in Task Master,and every 3 minutes I get an error message from it. I e-mailed their customer service, I got one answer back saying someone would get intouch with me, they never did and now my e-mail to them just comes back. All I want now is help getting it off my computer.Thanks.

1.0 out of 5 stars They have NO customer service, January 7, 2004

This review is from: Safeworld: Spam & Pop-Up Blocker (CD-ROM)
My Pop-up blocker worked pretty well, but my virus protection still hasn't been activated (although they charged my credit card). I've e-mailed 5 times, but there don't seem to be any humans working there. There are absolutely no phone numbers to call for help.
DON'T BUY SAFEWORLD

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Buy It!, April 24, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Safeworld: Spam & Pop-Up Blocker (CD-ROM)
This program doesn't work. You can't permanently turn off the sounds (they are really annoying) and it doesn't filter out emails where you've added words to the filter list. Other than that it works just fine (heavy sarcasm). Don't buy it. Just consider me another sucker for their ads. Here, take my $30 based on your false advertisements and call me gullible.
