Smiley Central & Incredimail

Does anyone know if the claims of "No Adware or Spyware" by these Products are true. I've heard that their claims of being spyware or adware free are not true.

To the best of my knowledge. Incredimail is not spyware or malware. However, it digs deeply into your registry so should you decide to remove it be prepared for a long, arduous task. Furthermore, my understanding of the program is that it is resource intensive and can slow down the pc. Personally, I wouldn't bother with it since there are so many more better mail programs out there but hey.. if you like it, go for it.
Not sure about Smiley Central.

Some useful info here. Smiley Central comes from "Fun Web Products" and contains usage tracking cookies.
Any program that contains those, is a form of spyware, and Smiley Central definitely falls into this category.
