Ad Adware - an aid in getting rid of trojans

creamxtreme · 2005-08-13, 10:54 PM

Found this program and I have been using it more than I would S & D.

This is freeware available from Lavasoft.

I'm gonna place a link on my site to it too, so that my surfers have another tool in their arsenal to use against private software.

Good Luck!

Nick

The problem with the free version is it wont fix much and only looks for older versions of installs and trojans - to get up-to-date coverage you have to buy the Plus version.
Another much better program with less overhead and the best protection while surfing is spysweeper - but again as with all the programs - the free version only gives you partial protection

You realize that Ad-Aware includes tracking cookies in its definitions, right? I don't want surfers knowing about anything that could keep affiliates from getting credit for a sale. Especially if it's my cookie

Adaware is mediocre and doesn't really deal with really malicious or agressive threats. Madlenix is right you'll just get tracking cookies deleted. If you want to really help your surfers link them to this site:
