CNET
http://snipurl.com/dofg Spyware Doctor http://snipurl.com/spyware_proctologist suffers from software glitches; failed to identify or remove a test Trojan horse; returned a high number of false positive or extremely low-risk results; doesn't include telephone support. The bottom line: Until this recent release, Spyware Doctor was one of the better antispyware choices. Nettlesome glitches and a low rate of spyware removal, however, keep us from recommending Spyware Doctor for now. |

I was about to renew my subscription to Spyware Doctor updates, but after reading the CNet review, I won't. Now I wonder why PC Magazine didn't notice the problems in its Anti-Malware review that it published this week. *TimDaniels* |
