    I have been using Counterspy, and am not displeased with it. Howevever, my license expires in Feb, and I am wondering if there are any recent tests of AS utilities.

    I have an unused copy of Spysweeper, and MS antispyware is free.

    Is there any experience or test that indicates that Spysweeper is as good as Counterspy or that either are significantly better than MSAS?

    Thanks,
    Jerry

    USA still the best. But barely.
    Of the 2 mentioned MSAS. But I use Trend Micro Anti-Spyware.

    Spysweeper has a very good RealTime scanner and good on demand performance. Better than Counterspy
    Doctor Spyware is very top too

    Free one : MSAS for his real time protection and Ad-Aware but no real time scan

    I noticed you have LnS version 2.05p3 listed in your signature. How did you get the p3 version? I have 2.05p2 and there are no updated programs available.
