I have been a long time "declude community member" and have finally switched to ASSP for the same reasons that I switched from IMail. My first copy of declude was given to me by Scott in exchange for advertising on my site. I thought it was a good deal when I paid $899 for it later. I enjoyed the active list and the support that I received from declude. Now I don't even recognize most of the names on this list and it feels so corporate that it turns my stomach. Way to go guys!
