not sure if this has been done before

anyways, does anyone here use it and is it any good? is it worth getting?(buying)
and how badly does it slow down ur pc? is it really as bad as many people say?

thx

isnt that one of the free thingies in "hitman pro"?

anyway, i think i used it some times and mostly i dont
really like that kind of program. what i normally do is
download a virusstopper (as in nod32, avg, avast, etc.)
and thats it. if my laptop becomes too slow i just format
it and im done. takes me about 3 hours in 2 months and
i get rid of all the crap on my laptop.

About 2 years ago I used to use Spyware Doctor, it is 1000 times better then Ad-Aware, and it finds alot more stuff, it even checks your SVChost and deletes any malicious code that was added onto the windows file (So it prevents tracking cookies from being created automatically and from your info being logged). The only problem now is that Spyware Doctor is no longer free

So just use Ad-Aware. its not as good, but it will get somewhat of the job done.
