    This is a critical update for Windows Vista users, especially those using Service Pack 1 so if you're using an older version, update using the check for updates within the program then go to the browser window that it opens.

    this is such an awesome anti spyware.

    Also, it does install the Webroot Ask Toolbar, but if you ask not to install it, it wont be installed.

    Also there is a way, legally to get this program completly free for 1 year, somewhere on www.webroot.com - although they are not displaying the link on their website, you gota find the link somewhere on Google, when i find it, i'll post

    The new interface is awesome. This program always worked well for me. It's good at blocking malware and sites without being annoying. I like to run SpywareBlaster 4.1 and Defender with it.

    a-squared antimalware has a really good scanner that I like.

    Webroot Spy Sweeper is my main line of defense.
