Hi always used Spybot but was wondering how good 'Super anti-spyware ' http://www.superantispyware.com/ is?

Appreciate any views

Thx

Good program. I like it Found it more effective

Spybot was one the first freeware anti-spyware programs and it's still a decent program, but SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes are now considered better.

But I would still keep Spybot because it's extra features. The Immunize function and the Hosts file provide another layer of protection. Also the Active-X and BHO tools are useful in identifying which ones are legitimate. Plus it's good to have several anti-spyware scanners as they tend to find different threats.

Another vote here for Superantispyware and I would not keep Spybot, it's old technology and has little to offer a new system.

ok interesting have heard mixed views, so no conflict if using both on system?
Guess I've been so used to 'Spybot'

Cheers guys appreciated

You can use multiple antispyware programs on a system, it is antivirus programs you should not have more than one of, though once again, how many hoops must one jump through to avoid spending $19.99 lifetime price of the best program?

I got 'super antispyware professional version I won at CastleCops® and it has a lifetime of updates on it.
Also won the a-squared Anti-Malware that is good. The new version 4 does a whole lot. It alerts you on things before something bad can happen. Can block sites and programs and it has the Ikarus Anti-Virus engine.
So its a Anti-Spyware + Anti-Virus! both now.

Cheers Hewee sounds good

Its just an opinion that Superantispyware is THE best program out there

I have malwarebytes pro version
Its light on resources and very easy to use and the free pdogram is excellent as well

No one program will catch everything

[joe2cool]

OK Thx so the 'Malwarebytes Free Works fine, so the pro version is aone offf payment?

Yes that's right. If you go to the site it is $39.99 for life. Don't do that. Run it manually and by the 3rd time you update it, you will see the opportunity to buy it for $19.99 lifetime for $19.99 right in the update screen.

Funny the antispyware professional version has a lifetime subscription but if I do a manual update and when there is a update I get the I think a one day only thing to get the lifetime subscription for $19.99.
But I already have the lifetime subscription.

I did not know Malwarebytes had a free version.
