Version: Ad-Aware 8.0.7
"Honestly what happened? It is now a giant piece of junk"
Pros: Sadly I have nothing good to say, only they better get it right with the new version or the reputation will be shot.
Cons: I don't think I need to repeat what's wrong with the current version.
Summary: Honestly what happened to what used to be probably the best adware program available. It has become a gian piece of ......need I say more. For those of us who read the user reivews we are seeing a number of unique programming problems associated with the Anniversary Edition. I have one of the common problems in which it will download updates, but will only scan approximately 3000 files, then stops and finally closes on its own. I find it curious that only two days from now a new edition is coming out...of course without any acknowledgement of this being an attempt to fix the obvious bugs. Basically the Anniversary editions SUCKS....and big. Don't download the Anniversary Edition, just wait until Tuesday, 10/13/09 when the 2010 version comes out and let's hope they got it right this time.
