One of the best Malware scanners available, for free or otherwise. I've used it very often, on different computers and never had a false positive! Any scanner is going to detect tracking cookies, so don't complain about that..jeez! Easy to use, doesn't hurt the eyes, and detects things other scanners don't.

Incredible number of false positives. Came up with a few dlls that I wasn't sure about, so I ran them through Virus Total, all 30+ scanning engines showed them to be clean.

After 3 years of regular use, my current a-squared scanning records show : 12 tracking cookies found !!! (Hurray!) 0 acknowledged virus/threats/trojans found. 1677 acknowledged False positives found. One positive thing though, for all the freaks out there, whenever, wherever it scans, it will always find "something" ! ;)

Are you kidding? Well that's just a slow computer.... My Spyware Terminator takes about a minute and a half for a quick scan. A-square really detected some viruses that other software like spyware terminator and avast! didn't detect.
