spydocDecember 2, 2009
Pros
I DON'T LIKE IT!!!! IT USES SPYWARE AND TROJANS AND THEY ARE IN ZIP FILE FORMAT!!!!!
Cons
HATED THAT IT ATTACKED MY MACHINE AND CAUSED A SHUTDOWN.
Summary
I WAS DISAPPOINTED IN THIS PRODUCT AND IN CNET. THIS PRODUCT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BE SPYWARE FREE. NOT!!!!!!!
Not for me

Pros
Fast scan thats about it
Cons
Updates once and that's it haven't had an update sinds and its been over a week.
Summary
Works fast but outdated not too usefull.
a good secondary scanner
stu54November 18, 2008
Pros
has a huge data base. scans are quick. found a couple of trojans that spyware terminator missed. a good secondary scanner.
Cons
no realtime protection and options are a bit limited.
Summary
if you are having problems removing a spyware infection then this might be worth a go. when i checked out its data base it was huge. it should be used as a secondary spyware program as it has no realtime protection. it completes a full scan relatively quick (20mins on xp sp3 ) and it found a couple of trojans on my system that spyware terminator missed. a handy little program to have.
Great Antispyware
Dark12313June 21, 2008
Pros
IT has one of the best detections I've ever seen, it even picked up spyware that others like ad-aware, spybot, spyware terminator and windows defender missed! It is also very fast to scan and has an undo section that allows you to restore fixed problems. Overall Great antispyware and very easy to use.
Cons
Lacks some features like real-time protection, and other guards you might find on different antispyware products.
Summary
Very good program.

trumpetman1433July 14, 2006
Pros
Uses very little system resources during scans. Finds most malware and gives some info on them. Nice (though cartoon-like) GUI. It's free and good to use as a back-up.
Cons
Updates full program instead of definitions, and not very often. No real time protection.
Summary
Nice program:)
brynjarMay 23, 2006
Pros
The interface options are nice and easy too handle. the program is doing a nice job finding and fixing spyware and all the other treats on your computer
Cons
Summary
Useful,but is it really needed?
SmoakyMay 14, 2006
Pros
Nice GUI. Kinda "cartoon" like icons. Able to scan more that one drive at a time and has an undo feature. Updates from what I can tell is just for new versions of the program and not for updating the database.
Cons
Too many VERY GOOD FREE programs out there that you can use instead of relying on this one for your anti-spyware protection. <p>My advice: stick with Ad-Aware SE personal,Spybot S&D and A-Squared.
Summary
Clean Program
Mike98April 18, 2006
Pros
Easy install and uninstall. I like it more than Spybot-Search&Destroy because it causes no annoying pop-ups.
Cons
No active shield and no automatic updates.
