Greetings to All: In a renewed attempt to wipe out Adware and Spyware on my various systems, I've been using Spybot Search&Destroy 1.3. The program seems effective, and although it's not completely JFW friendly, Debbie's scripts from JFWLite are extremely helpful with the basics. (Thanks a million, Debbie, if you're reading this post.) I haven't had similar success, though, with navigating and using Microsoft Anti-Spyware. I wish to have all three of the major anti-spyware programs in myarsenal, because I know they draw from different databases. As a work-around for the Microsoft product: I had a discussion a couple of months ago with an FS tech guy who told me unofficially of another anti-spyware program that is very accessible and that uses the same adware/spyware database as Microsoft Anti-Spyware. Is anyone out there familiar with this? I lost the name and Web site for that program, but would like either to implement this substitute or figure out how to make the Microsoft product usable. Thanks, Kane Brolin
