Is it working?

[Steve R]

I installed the AntSpyware software with the Real-time
Protection option on and a scheduled daily intelligent
scan. This evening's scan detected no spyware threats.
However, I followed up with Ad-Aware which found 55
instances and SpyBot which found 20 more. Am I doing
something wrong? Thanks.

The spyware may be sneaking back in.... ;(

I don't care for SpyBot. If you have MSN Internet Access
you can get (free) Spy Sweeper for MSN. [THIS is a MUCH
better detector than SpyBot.] Ad-Aware is very good and
you also need a good AntiVirus like AVG (free). You need
several different checkers to keep ALL the different
spyware, etc. off your computer. Some will show some
spyware while others don't....

In the Beta1 version, the program doesn't go into the cookie jar, nor does
it chase data miner objects.

Cookies/Dataminers are not detected in the Beta 1 or Refresh Update, look
for this to change possibly in beta 2.
