Julien,

Technically speaking (according to printf formats), this should be:
Spam Score Format = %05.2f

But I think many people who use MS don't know enough about printf to 
understand this.  And using something like %02.2f (which may be easier 
to understand for them) would confuse us with printf knowledge...

Just my 2 cents...
