I have used webroot spy sweeper for almost 2 years now and it is the best! Tell me did you guys and girls even bother to look at the system requirements when you picked up the box?:rolleyes: It has now sheilded me against 294 items and removed 86 items off my computer! I use it in conjunction with firefox, zonealarm, and AVG free edition and they have done a great job of keeping the bad guys away!

I dont know how they have rated Webroot Software's Spy Sweeper 5.0 as the best. I have used to have this producut but this was not able to remove Vundo.trojan, then I tried AVG AntiSpyware which did the best for me, I would like to have ask on whether AVG Antispyware is better or Webwroot's one. thank you

one day when I had too much time on my hands I ran about 4 of the free spyware programs on my computer. I had not run a scan in a while, and since I'm on it a lot, I pick up a lot of junk. The one that hands down picked up the most and was the easiest to use for me was ewido, which is now AVG. My son who is a total computer geek and has been since he was 10 (now 24) totally agreed with me. So this is now the one that I use. I also use ad aware as a back up, but have never needed it. So I am wondering, if this program is so good, and all of the geeks use it, why was it not tested? Isn't pc world kind of...well...geeky? :)

Spysweeper, you have to be kidding. I recently downloaded their newest version. It made my PC an unimaginable mess. I could in no way accept the way it affected the operation. Tonight I disabled Spysweeper, the next step - deletion. If this is your top rated spyware we are really in deep do-do. I disabled it, and my system returned to normal. Do you really believe that we must accept a total disruption of normal PC operation - to achieve security?Confused
