Version: SpyCleaner 8.7
"Better ASW apps are available for free"
Pros: It will find some older types of spyware.
Cons: Nothing inspires confidence like all but one review giving this a raving 2 THUMBS UP! and BEST EVER! and FINDS ALL SPYWARE!
No ASW software finds ALL spyware, and this one is certainly not "the best there is", not by a long shot.

Version: SpyCleaner 8.7
Pros: It Finds and deletes All your spyware. But be carefull if you have a P2P proram like BearShares,Limewire,Kaza,etc. SpyCleaner will delete those programs if you don"t uncheck the box next to their names, because Spy Cleaner feels all P2P programs are spyware. I personally feel you should spend a few dollars more and get Spy cleaner Gold, It's an upgrade with more features, but they are both well worth the price to have a spyware free pc. 5 Stars and TWO thumbs UP!
Cons: Might have a few false positives once in a while, I'm not sure.

Version: SpyCleaner 8.6
"might be the best spy cleaner on the market"
Pros: I download and test most the new releases that Download.com offers,especially the spyware fighters, registry cleaners, and web browsers. I now have so many icons on my screen I can't see my wallpaper anymore. Today I added SpyCleaner 8.6 to my army of eighteen spy removers. I ran all eighteen programs first,which included Spy Sweeper, Spyware doctor,Adaware,Emco,a-squared,Microsoft anti spy,Mcafee anti spy,Pest patrol,Counter spy, and BP spyware remover,(just to name a few). This took about 2 hours to run all of them, and the last 12 found nothing, of course. I then ran SpyCleaner and it found nine tracking cookies that my whole army had missed! I found that very impresive. As soon as I infect my pc with some big bugs,180 search, bargain buddy, Save, Cool web search, and a few trojans from porn sights and p2p sharing programs, I will give it another test and see how it does. But for now I recommend this product and think you shoud purchase it before the price goes up, because it cost less than the others. TWO thumbs UP!
Cons: Scans a little slower then the others.
