    I downloaded this when it was shown on another website. I just wanted people to be aware. I don’t know if it is just coincidence or not, but people noticed on the other website it is NOT an official Microsoft program and the owner of the website appears “shady” I decided because of that to use my “junk” email that is my old hotmail, not my new live one and apparently shortly after I used this program the first time I got emails back from people wondering if I had been hacked because my junk email sent out mass spam. BEWARE AND TEST FIRST ON NON CRITICAL HOTMAIL FIRST, THIS MAY BE A PHISHING SCAM.
