Why don´t you make a massege rule?
This works in Outlook Express:
Apply this rule after the message arrives
Where the Subject line contains 'Details' or 'Approved' or 'Thank you!' or 'Your application' or 'Wicked' or 'screensaver' or 'That movie'
Delete it from server

Well, it actually runs now. The single executable and no install is very nice. One annoyance is that it does not minimiuze to the tray or check automatically at a specified interval. It is worrisome to me that NotSoBig doesn't seem to scan for the sobig virus, but simply scans for key words in the subject line. Well, I could set my e-mail filter for that! I recommend another program, "Sobig Virus Stopper". It scans for the sobig virus, minimizes to the tray, checks at a specified interval, and even keeps statistics.

Absolutly Terrible. I have over 3000 of the sobig virus strains on my earthlink server, and I decided to try this program, and sure enough, its garbage. It comes up with some stupid error, "INVALID FLOATING POINT ERROR". Dont put up software that is garbage. Very disappointed

It worked fine for me on Windows 2000. No problems at all. Seems to be a handy tool.

NotSoGreat. Floating point error...won't even run. Authour should try such programs on their friends and family before releasing to the public. The software is needed and appreciated. I hope the author corrects the problem.
