The program Spider? does it work good, and is it safe?

[Comp01]

I just downloaded the program "Spider" off of the free tools section (http://www.wilders.org/free_tools.htm) and am wondering if its a good program? I got the beta which allows you to delete the files/hidden urls.. (http://www.fsm.nl/ward/index.html) well, I guess its not Spyware or anything, since it was on the tools section of this site, but just making sure :-\

Yes, it's safe and effective and spyware-free.

There are reports that it can cause flaky behavior (or be ineffective) on the later operating systems, though - so make sure you check the locations indicated to assure yourself that they've been properly cleaned, especially if you're an XP'er. Pete

Nah, I'm using Win98 2nd edition, with internet explorer 5.5 :-\

I remember reading someone had problems with XP though.

I installed Spider on XP and it didn't work.
It works on 98.
I installed it on a family member's computer.
Haven't had any problems with it so far.
