5. babyphatgirl9o3 Said,

6. KurokazeInagi Said,

   I’d like to point out that i followed these instructions to the letter and did not get any posative results.

7. THEStefanBL Said,

   I have ad-aware SE. It’s very good program, but (I wrote about this to lavasoft) once I chose to scan Windows and System Volume Information folders (under ADS option), I got a result that I have over 4000 (yes 4000!) Critical Objects. Under full system scan it found 4 – 5 objects. It marked as malware and TAC 7 every file of those 4000. Can anyone tell me why did that happen?

8. lovestarpiece Said,

   i use it too, now!
   it detected 629 infected files!
   omg!! i didn’t know that i had so much
   cookies on my computer!!!!

9. haku155 Said,

   i have a really really bad adware problem , u think this will find it ?

10. carmagedonr Said,

    I known Ad-aware but i prefer spybot because ad-aware dosen’t have a real time protection

11. Dswag101 Said,

14. shinymewxxx Said,

    spybot is just so much better,ad-aware (nearly) only finds cookies witch you can very easily delete with firefox…..

15. Ronster417 Said,

    ….

16. loloowns Said,

    is it really free?, cuz alot of people tell me it is, and yeah..

17. Laoch111 Said,

    ad-aware is indeed great, I have been using it for about 5 years.

    great tutorial.

18. DAMAN9136 Said,

    i tried updating through their website. i found the link, but it wouldnt work. so now what? any recomendations?

19. Wav3CrackeR Said,

    Well Ad-aware SE is still supported but you have to update manually through their website to get the latest defenitions. It kinda sucks if you ask me

20. BRIANMOLLER Said,

    is it true that ad aware se is no longer supported, forcing you to go update (so they call it) to ad aware 2007? i recently updated to the 2007 thing, and have read many comments that se is no longer supported which would explain why i havnt been able to update it for a long while now. and 2007 takes sooo long, so much more space, and i miss my se, has anyone else heard of this?

21. runescapefreak01 Said,

    avast is an antivirus, ad-aware is an antispyware program

22. BankheadBoyCool Said,

    Avast is better

23. ianbrowncc Said,

    No, you do not. And you need to have it hooked up to the Internet before you do the scan as well so you can update the spyware/malware definitions.

24. ianbrowncc Said,

    Ad-aware and Spybot are both anti-spyware/malware programs, while McAfee Total Protection is both an anti-virus program and an anti-spyware/malware program. It is OK to have all of them on the same system. You just can’t have two anti-virus programs on the same system, like zhukov99 said.

    And make sure that you do one scan at a time. Running more than one program at the same time to scan your computer could do some harm. My friend lost a hard drive that way.

25. ianbrowncc Said,

    Actually, it is OK to have Ad-aware and Norton Anti-virus installed on the same computer, because Ad-aware is not an anti-virus program. It’s an anti-spyware/malware program.

    However it is NOT OK to have them both running a scan at the same time. You need run a scan with each program separately.

    And livin831 is correct. You can not have two anti-virus programs running on the same computer. They will conflict.
