Re: Server Problems? That would be a nice feature to have in any AS application. I also run the free version of a-squared, and in watching...
I'm not sure I get the logic here. Again, if I just double clicked on the SAS icon on my desktop, I know very well which application has just...
I too find the splash screen annoying, and really it's unnecessary. I know what program I've just double clicked on and also that it's a free...
It appears after reading through the PC Tools forum mentioned here on post #8 that they are still having problems with SD 5.0. It's a little...
I too had this update problem that others were experiencing for a couple of weeks. I thought that perhaps AVG had 'timed me out' as far as my...
I'm surprised that DK did not provide a setup option that would allow you to skip defragging on startup, especially since defragging is not such a...
Can someone explain to me exactly what a boot-time defrag does, and why that is advantageous? I presume that it speeds up the boot process, but...
Thanks for that post, which I guess includes a screen from What's Running. One specific question: does SWD run lean at startup, while you are...
I have used the free versions of SD for some time, and one thing I don't like about them is that they take forever to load at startup. By watching...
I had the SD free version 3 and perhaps 2 as well, and neither one would provide removal of any malware they detected. I don't think PC Tools even...
I guess that's sound advice. A lot of people prefer Firefox over IE for any number of reasons including security, but for me there's just too much...
I have Windows XP SP2 and IE6 with MSN Premium. You can adjust your privacy as far as cookies go as follows (for those who may be unfamiliar with...
I don't know if some scanners are looking at this particular folder or not, but I have just completed full scans with the following AS...
Thanks for this invaluable tip, TopperID. Sure enough, there was the webtrends cookie, hidden in a system folder and safe from all scans, save...
Some cookies are useful, even essential on certain sites. Tracking cookies are not, in my opinion; they are associated with adware. Tracking...
True, but that's exactly the point. How do you know if the scan report is legitimate or not? Great if it's legitimate, not so great if it isn't.
Well, I believe the site Spyware Warrior is an excellent source of information, and Spyware Doctor is one of only seven recommended AS programs....
I'm not entirely comfortable with that policy myself, since it is used by dubious antispyware applications to suck people into buying annual...
I just downloaded a fresh copy of AVG with the latest updates and did a full scan. Of the two tracking cookies found (one being msn), the one that...
I took a look at the forums. It seems like 5.0 should still be in beta, where most of these issues should be sorted out. They'll work out the...
Can anyone reply concerning how long it takes SD 5.0 to fully load at startup? I use SD 4.0 in the free version, which does not allow you to...
Have you tried contacting their customer support directly?
I don't know what the problem might be, but given that SpywareBlaster and Spybot are both freebies, have you tried uninstalling Spybot to see what...
How so? Does it give you alerts, or have items shown up in the logs that demonstrate that it has done something useful like blocking malware?...
Yes, I guess there is something to be said for doing that. I don't bother, but I guess I will start doing so when I finally have a problem and...
Separate names with a comma.
