Version: Malware Scanner 2.1.0.5
Pros: Nice looking intuitive interface, easy install, an uninstaller that really works. Also has a straightforward EULA that sets off no alarms.
Cons: The initial scan on a system that had just been scanned with 5 other apps flagged 12 entries including 9 registry entries and 3 tracking cookies. 6 of the registry entries were related to detection signatures of other applications and their removal would have left me less protected than before. The remaining reg entries were too nonspecific to evaluate. The tracking cookies all came from either security forums or online security scans and are therefore ignored.

Version: Malware Scanner 2.1.0.5
"advertised right here, very few other places"
Pros: It looks nice and scans
Cons: It doesnt remove anything, its also advertised almost everywhere else as 'freeware' which its definitely not. On completing the scan it will tell you to buy it to remove the objects so this is actually very useless. If your looking to buy a software, this is it, if your looking to try a software before buying it, this is definitely not it.

Version: Malware Scanner 2.1.0.5
Pros: The interface is more like a flash-website. I guess its creator spent more time on the design than what it can do for you.
Cons: There is no option or log-file to view what was removed. You cannot change the size of the interface, and the text/information is too limited, forcing you to use the scroll-bars to view the info. On the ABOUT section of this software, there is no information on whom the product is registered to, such as your name and serial number. I would rather find a better software than waste money on this "judge a book by its cover" piece of junk.
