Would be a lot better if it would not let the spyware on the computer than removing afterwards

best overall antispyware product. its scanner/removal isnt as good as those like counterspy and spysweeper but it doesnt have as many of the freeze ups either. this has the best protection of the three. so 2nd in removal but top notch in protection and less freeze-up making this the clear cut favorite

Greatly maligned, it's one of the better products. I have this, Ad-Aware, Spy Sweeper, and a couple of others with additional 'freebie' tools. Of the three I've mentioned, I'd place this one at two (although I use it routinely at startup, I like its interface better).
