    "WOULD NOT ADVISE USING THIS PROGRAM"

    August 7, 2012  |   By jimbill33

    Pros

    CAN GIVE NO PROS ON THIS PROGRAM.

    Cons

    TRIED RUNNING A SCAN, FROZE THE COMPUTER UP, WAS ABLE TO RESTART.
    THE SECOND ATTEMPT FROZE IT UP AGAIN, THIS TIME IT WOULD NOT COME BACK UP. HAD TO RUN A REINSTALL OF OPERATING SYSTEM.

    Dear jimbill33,

    Thank you for your post. Do you have another antivirus software installed? Ad-Aware 10 is a full fledged antivirus software that cannot be run alongside another antivirus software as the features cannot be disabled. We are currently working on Ad-Aware 11 which will allow our users to download and install only the features they require.

    Kind regards,
    Corina - Lavasoft support
