The 'SUPERAntiSpyware', recommended by Heather, is a very effective utility,

which puts little demand on your pc. I 'may' use it to replace Ad-Aware SE

Personal.

You can download it here, or find another location of your choice:

I read on one of the forums that this program, while very effective, is

difficult to uninstall. Since no uninstall comes with the utility, I

assume that Add/Remove Programs leaves files behind. I was going to try

it out until I read that caveat.

They tell you specifically, that with the Add/Remove Program in Control

Panel the program will be 'completely removed'. Therefore it shouldn't leave

any files behind, but to be sure, you could check yourself and delete them,

if it were the case.

[Guest Heather]

Re: Ad-Aware SE Personal 1.06R1 updates

 

Why would you use "uninstall" instead of the better method of

Add/Remove?? Followed by removal, if needed, of anything left on your

HD and/or registry??

 

I never remove programs the way you suggest. Other than a rather

complicated uninstall and total removal of Zone Alarm by Horton.

 

Just wondered. Oh....and remembered Nick's name. Nick Skrepreto. I

think I used his program way back when, but haven't done so for about a

year or more.
