Statistical filter
With time, due to your marking messages as "spam" manually, the statistical (Bayesian) filter can accumulate inaccuracy because a message marked as spam may also contain words that are in general use, not only the ones that made you decide the message is junk, thereby the false positive is increased. If you see that more and more legitimate messages are marked as spam, press the Reset button to return the default pre-trained database of the filter.
Application
Start with Windows - AVS Antispam starts together with Windows (in case you checked the corresponding option during installation) but you can disable that by unchecking this option.
