  by 19monty64 on May 28, 2006

  Pros: easy on resources, easy to install & use, freeware version almost no limitations, you can set it to update & scan on restart, you can config. to scan only where you want (handy after initial deep-scan) and it is fa-a-ast!

  Cons: more tools than I could use is the closest to a con for this small dLo

  "good software with good toolkits"

  by Ghost_ARCHER on May 18, 2006

  Pros: scan ok. Good tools.

  Cons: I can't find 1.88 anywhere on website, but the version is listed here today. Download's mistake?

  Unless the uninstaller has some more feature ï?�say, can unlock the locked file), it can be removed because many other software has it and many user might prefer something like ccleaner to uninstall.

  The sniffer and active port is good. But the interface and function need some improvement.

  Process dictionary is a really good idea. Unfortunatly the database is small. I am wondering if it is possible to add some quick search to processlibrary.com or some other website, so that if something unknown , we can look it up from a reliable resource.

  "It's Good but....."

  by StarSeanyBoy on May 29, 2006

  Pros: The program does come packed with lots of features. It scans quickly for spy-ware etc. and seems to pick up the usual suspects (like AdAware and Spybot &co).

  It's free and has not caused any stability problems. The real-time protection is good but seems to use system resources whilst running (SpywareBlaster does not!)

  Cons: The other features of the program don't seem to have much content to them. Take the Start-up editor, it will tell you what's there, remove the tick and it's gone- but what if you're wrong! There are other free bespoke software packages for managing all elements of your computer in more detail.

  Also constantly being invited to try the professional edition did become very boring after a while. I hope with improvement I will be downloading a better version of this program soon.
