Spring Cleaning 10.0 (Mac OS X)

Good program but untrustworthy company  

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. [alert admin]
