SpyBot "Seach & Destroy" version 1.6x final released, today, here:

http://www.spybot.info/en/mirrors/index.html

(Get it, while it's "HOT", & straight "from the horses mouth" no less...)



* Enjoy...

I say THAT, because, imo?

Well, again (said this above):

SpyBot S&D truly IS, the "best-in-the-business", for this type of program, even surpassing Ad-Aware by Lavasoft!

I say that, for 1 reason: E.G.-> I use these types of programs daily on the job professionally, for virus/spyware/trojan removals, & yes... BOTH of them work!

However - Spybot S&D works in SAFE MODE!

(Which you SHOULD use to clear these machinations from your system rather than a normal boot, because it makes the job MUCH easier, since many of these badwares cannot run in safemode period is why)...

Others, like LavaSoft's AdAware SE (@ least that model doesn't) won't, & THUS, I have to give SpyBot S&D the "nod" over others like it!

* ADDITIONALLY - You'll notice a few cool & good things about it, such as the "TeaTimer" (trayicon tray resident app portion) loading faster, & its MAIN body program seems to scan faster too, overall... imo @ least, so far!

APK

P.S.=> I am partial to this program, for yet another reason: It's written in the language I have come to call my "fav" out there (& I code in 10 or more of them pretty fluently, ranging from Assembler, C/C++, Pascal, COBOL, FORTRAN, Basic (& its variants/dialects), & more): Object Pascal, via Borland Delphi... fastest RAD dev. tool there is, bar-none, & especially in MATH & STRINGS (which EVERY PROGRAM DOES DO, in those 2 datatypes + operations on said data)... apk
