Publisher's description
From Patrick M. Kolla :Spybot - Search & Destroy can detect and remove a multitude of adware files and modules from your computer. Spybot can also clean program and Web usage tracks from your system, which is especially useful if you share your computer with other users. Modules chosen for removal can be sent directly to the included file shredder, ensuring complete elimination from your system. And for advanced users, it allows you to fix Registry inconsistencies related to adware or malicious program installations. The handy online update feature ensures that Spybot always has the most current and complete listing of adware, dialers, and other uninvited system residents.
Version 1.2 adds a variety of new and updated features, including an immunization option that allows you to block many spyware downloads before they get to your computer, and improved detection mechanisms for morphing files.

Version: Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.2
"Spybot: a great way to make your computer alot faster!"
Pros: It made my Windows 98 faster. Spybot alerts you every time you have a registry change, an added program sometimes spyware or addware will be attatched. It took away a 2.3 GB of software that I never added. If you have frostwire this is a must have
Cons: I don't hate anything about it. It's free and does what other services do for a pretty good amount money. Even if your computer isn't slow you need it so you won't have to deal with adware slowin' it down.
Summary: It's free. It works great and doesn't take up "any" space on your hard drive. My little Windows 98 can still survive thanks to this. If you have any P2P networking going on for music,Frostwire, Limewire, Imesh, Kazaa, Morpheus.
