    Don't forget to walk your emails into the spam carpet.

    Seems the guys at CubeDesktop have been using Google Translate for their FAQs:

    You don“t receive the number of license at your email after that you purchase?

    You must receive the number of license a few minutes after you purchase. If you dont receive it, please see the emails that you have got into the spam carpet. If you have not got it contact us by email.

    That sounds like a half-baked translation of the Spanish term for "folder", which is "carpeta".

    It is something you sweep your spam under, of course.

    I don't know, but it really tied the room together.
