I've written a Windows freeware program to auto-delete Kindle notices.

So what the heck does that have to do with Recipes? Well, on my Kindle, a screen's worth of Recipe-origin Amazon notices pop up daily, telling me that I've exceeded my $0.00 3G download limit. Guessing that people who write recipes also might use them a lot to download scheduled news, I'm hoping this would be an appropriate place to publicize my creation. Here's the KinCleaner web site:

I have some questions you folks may be able to answer:

-- Is there maybe another way, in Calibre, to prevent Kindle notices, that I missed?

-- Do we get notices on all Kindles, or just if you have a model that works with cell phone networks?

-- KinCleaner has only been tested on my Kindle Keyboard 3G. I can't imagine why it wouldn't work on other Kindles, but would greatly appreciate if someone would test it for me on an earlier device.

-- KinCleaner has only been tested on 32 bit Windows Vista and XP. I can't imagine that it would have a problem with Win2000 or Windows 7, but can see the possibility of an issue with 64 bit Windows.

So I'd also greatly appreciate if someone could test that.

I realize that these last two requests would take someone a lot of time, and, thus, answers on them may be too much to expect. All input welcome.
