Version: Spyware Terminator 1.3.00.599
"Recently de-listed off of Spyware Warrior. Awesome software!"
Pros: Its still free.
They have made the system agents tab really easy to work with (changed from version 1.2). You can enable and disable individual agents and set the sensitivity of the active agent in the program.
Since it was recently de-listed off of Spyware Warrior rogue list you won't see anymore bologna posts from some Download.com members about a Spyware Warrior rogue listing.
You can turn on the safe-program alerter. You can see when a program opens, even when a DLL registered and registry entries are added to the Windows registry...its awesome.
Program offers DAILY, automatic definition updates.
You can choose to have it integrate with Windows System Restore.
Cons: The program defaults to having it do a scan everyday. I don't think I will ever get to a point where I have to scan daily, so this is a minor annoyance which I have to change in the program settings.
The window still isn't resizable. The only time this is really an issue is when you are modifying the sensitivity of the system agents, as they don't seem to fit in the defined area for them.
For all you people who prefer a localized version of the program, there is a MENU for changing the program language, however it seems unable to be changed and only has a choice of "English".

Hi, logically I think you should not trust this software! A "anti-spyware software" that has been on Spyware Warrior rogue list is something bad. You can not really believe that this company has changed "its soul" and suddenly wants to fight spyware with its whole soul? They play serious, I think. They want a better reputation, BUT THEY DO NOT HATE SPYWARE!! Because I do not think they are schizophrenic! Best Regards, Bjorn Lundahl, Gothenburg, Sweden
