"Really useful"
Version: Ad-Aware Free Internet Security 9.6

Clearly tells me the errors found and clears them. Nice scheduling application.

Though it clears the errors found after a scan it goes back to the beginning so I'm not sure if I should scan again.

"It need to be better."
Version: Ad-Aware Free Internet Security 9.6
Pros
Free and free.
Cons
Slowed down my pc.
Security toolbar had an annoying auto-inserting function to its searchbox with the clipboard.
Uninstaller failed every time.Summary
I was dissappointed. Right after install, my system became a little retarded. I thought, no problem I can live with it but when I opened the settings I found out most of the functions were disabled and only process protection was running because IObit malware fighter was running. So I decided to uninstall it. The uninstaller couldn't find its own uninstall files, I had to browse the forum to figure out how to remove it so it requires a third party program to remove it. Once I removed it and replaced it with avira my system became twice as fast. Basically, it needs to be better.

-Awe man! you have to pay for full screen mode? Oh and the scheduler is kind of confusing too.

"Thorough. Would definitely recommend."
Version: Ad-Aware Free Internet Security 9.6

Found malware that other programs had missed.

Slows down computer if all the screening options are set to "on". I unchecked those and will just run "quick scan" often. I am already running Avast Antivirus, Wise Disk Cleaner, and Wise Registry Cleaner.
