Still good as far as I know......
AdAware has had at least 6 updates in the last 4 days. And SpywareBlaster
has a couple.
I ran Spybot today and used it to find registry entries that were out of
whack......but didn't delete many. Still cautious with the Registry.

I noticed that as well. I wonder if they are focusing more on Spyware
Guard.

They tend to update about once per month.

So is AdAware 6........and they have had multiple updates in the last 4
days......are they catching up to Spybot?? (BG)
Spybot is not for the faint of heart......because it also identifies
registry keys that are useless or 'wrong path'. I have a brother-in-law who
would crash his machine using that. AdAware is far better for the
*computer-challenged*.

Heather,
According to Patrick a new update was issued 12/4/04, but my comp. won't see
it or pick it up.
I believe he also has a newer version in beta at the moment.

I checked again last night and nothing. I wonder if this new update is a
beta one......or for advanced users. I will look into it via Siljaline's
website.
