Untrustworthy vendor

I am completely annoyed by their dial home e-mail tool. There is no information on what they send out, how they use it or where it goes. Fortunately, PGP blocks it most of the time, but I've had it and am removing the utility in favor of CleanMyMac.
Good program but untrustworthy company - Version: 10.0, 10/24/2008 01:53AM PST

I have been evaluating 'Spring cleaning' for over a week, cleaning up duplicate files on my mac. I have no qualms about how the program runs and for what I want it to do it is very good, put simply its quite fast and it works well with a lot of options and filters available to narrow and speed up your search.
BUT...
Since installing the program (remember only for evaluation) I have been constantly nagged by a program called 'schedulemailer' trying to access my keychain on my mac, more specifically for my email account passwords. I was not made aware that this hidden app would be installed and running in the background on my mac persistently trying to access my most private data. After some research on various forums I read some published responses from Smith Micro about the application. None of them specifically defined the reason or function of the program, apart from it 'protects' your mac.
You make your own minds up but for me they have betrayed my trust and I for one will not be reinstalling any of their software again once I get rid of it.

In my previous post I was commenting on Spring Cleaning Version 9.1 which performed well for me in several tests without any errors or any of the problems some other users have reported. I was recommending version 9.1 and advising against any previous versions since I had encountered problems with the older versions in the past. I apologize for the confusion that the previous post caused.
I have not used the newest version at this time, version 10, so I cannot comment on it. However there are a lot of free software options that can do many of the same things as Spring Cleaning.
Again I am sorry for the confusion from my previous post.
