adware pro is not even close to being a good ad-removal program anymore.

There are a few far better pay programs out there, if you are going to waste your money on pay ad removal programs, you should buy one that is good. Ad-aware works, just not as well as most pay or even free programs.

edit: am I the only person who doesn't use antispyware anymore? Well, I guess if you're going to have massive casual inter-sex you should always wear an e-condom... mostly, I think antispyware and antivirus software is a band-aid approach to a continuously evolving problem.
periodically check your registry, view the objects cached in the temp settings and shut the fuck up, wankers.

I run MS Antispyware and Spybot every month or so. Its easy enough to check anything MS finds rather than go simply on their default recommendation.

Yeah, I'm gonna go digging deep into the million+ registry tree manually and look for stuff...Underpants? wrote::lol:

Or I can fire up one of the antispyware tools once a month and see if anything new is infected... which usually is not.

well if you are dumb enough to get infected with claria and even dumber still not to change ignore to delete then you really shouldn't care about this change at all...+JuggerNaut+ wrote:so you're not bothered by this?Tormentius wrote:I run MS Antispyware and Spybot every month or so.

i'm directing it more towards why MS would do that, not if a user is dumb enough to be infected.Giraffe }{unter wrote:well if you are dumb enough to get infected with claria and even dumber still not to change ignore to delete then you really shouldn't care about this change at all...+JuggerNaut+ wrote:so you're not bothered by this?Tormentius wrote:I run MS Antispyware and Spybot every month or so.

nice try.Posted: Fri Jul 08, 2005 6:52 pm
Oh dont get me wrong, I'm quite bothered by it. If MS doesn't change the underlying code that makes Gator scumware then they'll lose the consumer and enterprise market before they've even released the final software version. This market is the same as the antivirus market, IMO and is built completely on trust. If consumers or corporations can't trust MS to correctly identify spyware then they'll fail in this venture.+JuggerNaut+ wrote:
