Thier product is a P2P secure email system, tightly integrated with outlook. You have to give an email to sign up for it, but I especially like this clause in the acceptance:
"3.3 The User by accepting these terms and conditions grants permission for the Company to utilise the processor and bandwidth of the User's computer for the limited purpose of facilitating communication between others within the Jefcom Community."
Any takers folks?
