CounterSpy

Version: 2.1.946

Unbelievably, the best just got better.

Pros: I have used Counterspy for almost as long as it has been around and have always been amazed at its detection and removal capabilities. As a computer technician, I recommend it to all my customers to keep their computer clean and safe. Besides, they can get a full featured trial without nagging or scare tactics, it speaks for itself.

With VIPRE, Counterspy does an amazing job of picking up new trojans and malware that many antivirus companies havent yet. In my capacity as a technician I sometimes come upon new malware that many programs can not detect and more often that not VIPRE flags it as suspicious.

The innovation and talent that went into this product is truly admirable. I have learned that they hire and consult with some of the best experts in the anti-malware field. Not surprising then, at how well it works.

And at that price, you truly get every penny of your money's worth.

Anti-Spy.Info

Version: 1.6e

Misleading, possibly dangerous program for normal users. Not worth it.

Pros: 30-day trial but bugs you about paying.

Decent process listing.

Cons: Does not remove spyware automatically!

Tags legitimate programs as possibly dangerous. Casual users may damage their system by removing something legitimate.

Website is misleading and has deceptive awards and ratings advertised.

Considering there are free programs that do the same things and actually remove spyware, you'd be wasting your money on this.
