nice program

 

indeed

 

So, is CounterSpy meant to run as a stand alone program or as a companion to another suite?

Thanks,

 

Is a full AV, so you have to run it stand alone.

Some antimalware software that can run along side almost any av:
Prevx
Immunet
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
Superantispyware

 

Actually CountySpy is the companion from Sunbelt and can run along side other products as far as I am aware.

 

Yes it registers to security centre as Antispyware only.

 

Is there a 64 bit version?

 

Yes!

TH

 

It can still be run alongside an Av?

 

No Problem here along with Ikarus Virus.Utilities on W7 x64, just disable "check files when they are opened or copied" in the Active protection module settings.

Rules.

 

CounterSpy is the Anti-Spyware product of Sunbelt. It is not a full AV, and yes, it is meant to be run alongside any AV. It's included as the AS module of VIPRE which is Sunbelt's full-blown Anti-Malware (AV/AS/AR/etc) product.

 

Just installed this for the first time since the beta for v4. Seems stable just like the beta. Anyone else using this?

 

Yep, i use it on W7 x64, along with comodo firewall and ikarus virus utilities, and it's very stable and fast.

Just noticed the delayed start of real-time shield, for no conflicts with other security startup.

Good software.

rules.

 

Yep I noticed a slight boot delay too but I don't really care because I leave my PC on all day and when I turn them on each morning I leave them too boot.

I have experienced no conflicts either but to be on the safe side I white listed Panda and CounterSpy from each other to be safe. If it works well for a week on my machine I am going to add it too each of my personal machines I have.

 

Any detection rates on this? I know CS used to be top of the line before MBAM and SAS took over.

 

Don't found any reviews of V4, but we can say CS4 is a part of Vipre, so it may have a good detection rates (large threat database).

Also, if you use it in real-time, beside MBAM on-demand, i think you catch in practice lot of threats.

Rules.

 

Yeah I have been searching the net for reviews, seems most review sites only review full av products like Vipre but not Anti-Spyware/Malware products like CounterSpy.

It should have detections rate up with MBAM due to the fact they really have a very talented malware research team behind them. Besides CounterSpy never really fell while SAS/MBAM came up people just like free so CounterSpy was not talked about as much.

 

totally agree with you, and remember the previous version of Counter spy are a little bit heavy on resource.
