   Have read somewhere that this is a spyware...it sneak in a toolbar (=spyware behaviour), it say it detects stuff but it never remove it. Pure crap ! I recommend Spybot S&D 1.6.x, Malwarebytes Antimalware Free (latest version), A-Squared Free 4.5.

   Spyware Terminator totally messed up my computer running Beyond TV
   even after telling it that Beyond TV was OK to run .... Beyond TV refused to run with Spyware Terminator installed ... the really bad part was that even after I un-install Spyware Terminator Beyond TV still refused to run.... I had to re-format the computer for Beyond TV to work again.........
   Spyware Terminator made to the hall of shame

   Just did a test install, and after ticking advanced install I did indeed see an option whether to install the toolbar. Tickbox is labelled 'Enable Web Security Guard Toolbar (Recommended)'. If this is unticked, you do not get the crawler toolbar. Obviously some of the posters below need to read what they're clicking 'next' to before saying they haven't been asked things.
   
   Protection is pretty good, but I've often seen the scan miss things I knew were on the machine. The resident shield is quite good, but not much use for the average user as it generates too many queries with very little provocation. Many average users end up either clicking yes or no all the time, both of which can be just as harmful. By average user I mean the majority I come across who immediately describe themselves as knowing very little about computers. To get the best out of this program requires quite a high skill level, but in the right hands should be very effective.

   I have been using this for years and even with this update, I was not "Forced" to install anything.
   
   If you do the "Advanced Settings" button @ the start of the install, it lets you choose what you want and don't. You should always do a "Advanced / Custom" setup with ANY software package you install.
   
   Also use the Direct / Offline version of this Install:
   http://dnl.spywaretermin...areTerminator_Setup.exe
   
   It's still an effective tool and gets: *****
   
   And NO "Some Guy" I am no programmer. If fact I am a Desktop Admin that in my 15+ years doing this have learn that becasue a Toolbar is now part of the install does not clarify it as an "Update".
   
   The Crawler NEVER installs under the Advanced Setup. If you open ST and click that you want "Real Time Protection" and tell it you want it "Enabled" then it will start to download the installer. By Default, the Offline Package (Link above) does NOT include these features as default. You most likely used the Installer provided here which is the "Idiot Proof" one for people that can't be bothered with making their own decisions.
   
   Uninstall the version you have an use the Offline Installer (Link Above)
