An actual polarizer filter allows for a sharper image, wheras post process just tweaks the image. (If I remember right)
Here is what Wiki says :)
The polarizer stops light that is refracted off other surfaces Polarizers are the type of filter whose use is least affected by digital photography; while effects that may visually resemble the results of a polarizing filter can be simulated with software post-processing, many of the optical properties of polarization control at the time of capture simply cannot be replicated, particularly those involving reflections.
The said, anytime I see haze, smoke or smog I shoot mostly with the polarizer. (unless I want to use it in my composition).

No - I usually use post processing in Photoshop Elements (using the levels feature).

I guess you are right, you do see some strange stuff.
Do you use a polarizer for your landscapes?
