I looked at the SG Reports on my machine, and there have only been 3 alerts, and all of them BHOs (Browser Helper Objects) - two of them were...
Well, SG works using algorithms/heuristics, not definitions, for protection. By that I mean that instead of identifying specific malware by name...
Thanks for the post. I don't think SpywareGuard has ever given me a warning about anything in the past several years, as far as I can recall....
Glad to hear that there are no more problems. I don't know what other AS you use actively or on-demand, but I would not rely too much on...
I also run the free version for on-demand scanning. I haven't had the problem you experienced at all. Maybe you are checking for updates at times...
I did check several forums, and in some the posters said the problem went away when they went back to SD version 4. From the dates of the posts it...
I recently upgraded to Spyware Doctor 5.0. Randomly when I shut down I get the blue screen with a message that a problem was detected and windows...
Thanks for this additional tip. I looked under 'Real-time protection options', and the WD icon was set to always appear in the notification area,...
Does anyone have any very recent experience with Spyware Doctor 5.0? Have they worked out the bugs that seem to have plagued it when the version...
Thanks to all for their posts on this thread. To EliteKiller: I am running XP 32 bit. I do have the current version of WD, 1593. To...
For some unknown reason Windows Defender has stopped loading at startup recently, even though it apparently should since it shows up as a startup...
How so? And what do you prefer?
Good luck to Merijn and I hope he made a bundle on the deal. But I do worry about the future of Hijackthis, now that it's in the hands of a...
Thanks for the info, Blackcat. I was not familiar with that one at all.
What is Windows Onecare using for its antivirus? Is it an in-house product or licensed/acquired from another software vendor? Its antispyware...
For what it's worth, the May 2007 issue of 'PC World' had a long feature on best free software. The top registry cleaner was TweakNow RegCleaner...
How about saying AVG has had a Czech-ered history of late? Or maybe you would like to right a Czech?
That's a pun. A bounced check (or rubber check) is a check usually written with insufficient funds in the bank account that gets returned...
I didn't say the product was unacceptable, but I am agreeing with the OP and those subsequent posters who assert that the splash screen is a...
I have used several university and public library computers in recent years, and I have yet to see any security software of any kind visible on...
Spy Sweeper in the paid version by default initially loads a splash screen, but provides the option of disabling it. I am also fairly certain that...
Yes, I can sympathize with that if you are a paying customer. I myself have been lucky and have been able to download updates the last couple...
I have had fairly good luck here in the US the past few days updating in the evening, which is the wee hours in Europe. I suppose this works...
Does it? You're posting on it as well. As noted, I am not the OP and would not have started this particular thread myself, but if I express my...
Fine. I believe vendor's policy is an appropriate topic for open discussion if a poster chooses to discuss it in a reasonable manner.
