    Version: PC Adware Spyware Removal 1.98

    "Cloneware..."

    by LoW_Reviewer on June 3, 2005

    Pros: Owner of this system is spreading his junk all over the web. It does work on some levels

    Cons: Has major memory leaks, lags computer, kills processes when they run and is loaded with false positives. On the plus side it did nab 9/12 spyware aps on my pc. This memory has to be addresses before anyone should d/l. Wait a while!

    by Nemesis6 on April 12, 2005

    Pros: * None I know of.

    Cons: #1 -

    False positives work as goad to purchase: It WILL detect legit files as spyware.

    #2 -

    Flawed, inadequate detection scheme: It replies on directory names and file names to detect spyware; Heuristics.

    #3 -

    Inadequate information about company, no privacy policy/EULA.

    #4 -

    This product is another clone in a serious of deceptive anti-spyware series, all designed to get money out of the consumer: See #1 and #2.
