It runs fine on Unix but the source says it can be compiled on M$ systems too, though an executable is supplied. It can do a lot and aside from not using the real Email address in the browsers' setup (some tell, some tell not) it is an additional measure. See http://www.junkbuster.com/ for more, it is free for private users and their site has a lot to say even if you do not want to use it.
