Comments and Reviews
Like Spybot S&D, this software isn't the best, nor even a great anti-spyware tool anymore. It's slow and buggy since SE was removed from the Internet, and it's outright terrible. Although it's still quite polished up, don't be deceived by that, it's not worth the time to install and manage. As of 2008, this software is junk, and is only as good as a pseudo-Malwarebytes with some (terrible) sort of real-time security.
