a friend told me about this today, im using the trial and the program is pretty neat, it has excellent reviews at alot of places

yep you right man , its not a bad tool at all

[ripken204]

well i just ran it and 4 things came up, then i ran ms antispyware and 1 came up

[ripken204]

well no wonder they are so alike, Giant Company Software was in partnership with sunbelt! so this program is exactly like ms antispyware but a little better, too bad its not free tho

Also, different anti-spyware tools have different definitions of what spyware is, so they might come with more or less entries that they classify as spyware. I've scanned with Ad-Aware SE Pro v1.06, Spybot v1.4 and M$ Antispyware Beta and they all came up with 0.

ripken, that's not a very good test unless you told counterspy not to delete or quarantine the spyware after that search.

What ???? So you do trust Sunbelt's software - yet don't delete the spyware it finds - I'm puzzled

[ripken204]

it was a test between counterspy and ms antispyware

Ahh of course

I see that now - my mistake - that happens when you don't read the full thread - bad habit on my part ....
