Press Release Body = Doctor Web, Ltd. announces the beta-testing of the new product protecting Windows workstations from viruses and unsolicited mail (spam). The mail filtering module SpIDer Mail® now integrates a spam filter based on Vade Retro® technology from Goto Software, a French company with more than 5 year experience in anti-spam development.
All users willing to try the new functionality of Dr.Web anti-virus can register as beta-testers and explore the advantages of the spam-filtering technology. SpIDer Mail, being as always light, efficient and transparent to the user, is now integrated with Vade Retro anti-spam filter, thus protecting the client\'s mailbox from not just dangerous but from unsolicited mails as well.
The anti-spam module has several advantages.
