Software that doesn't start, runs very slowly or crashes often

A program that doesn't start, crashes often or is not performing as expected even in term of speed may be a sign of a system issue, either Hardware or Software.

macOS 64-bits versions of maxprog products available

Yesterday, steveb-ci, an eMail Verifier customer posts a very interesting comment in our forum about eMail Verifier compared to online solutions. This is what its says: I've been on a big test recently, comparing how well the various email cleaning services compare to each other. I started with a list of 1500 emails that hadn't been used in several years. Email verifier reduced the list to 1275 addresses marked as OK, or looks OK. I then ran the list of 1500 through some of the most popular
