This comes up on the list from time to time.

No, The Bat is a legitimate email client (such as Outlook and Eudora) which, like Outlook and Eudora, is often falsely inserted into the headers by spamware.

I first thought that The Bat was spamware when I first saw it in spam headers. I quickly found out that it was not, and after looking into it further, found it to be the Windows email client that I dislike the least. I've been using it now for over 5 years.
