Guest PAT (Paul) Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 I know lavasoft Ad-Aware SE as we knew it for years is no longer available. Now their site advertise Ad-Aware 2008... not entirely sure if this is a "free" or "trial". Can someone shed some light, and if not really free, suggest a replacement. Thanks. Paul -- cogito ergo sum
Guest Joan Archer Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Re: Ad-Aware I'm pretty sure there is a free version for that one but I can't really say for sure as I stopped using it when the 2007 version came out, too many hiccups with it. Have you had a look at SuperAntiSpyware Paul, there is a free version and a paid one. The free version can only do a manual scan but the Pro version has real time protection, I use the Pro version and find it very good but that runs on XP I have the free version installed on my WinME machine and neither takes up too much in the way of resources. -- Joan Archer http://www.freewebs.com/crossstitcher http://lachsoft.com/photogallery "PAT (Paul)" <PATPaul@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:3264753E-CC0C-437F-84BF-EE37D3D5EA20@microsoft.com... > I know lavasoft Ad-Aware SE as we knew it for years is no longer > available. > Now their site advertise Ad-Aware 2008... not entirely sure if this is a > "free" or "trial".

Guest Heather Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Re: Ad-Aware I am guilty of not replying to emails.....dunno why. Just one of those moods, I guess. OTOH, I have been busy getting ready for the brat's 2 week visit and also making jewellery. Not to mention bidding on eBay for Swarovski crystals for a song and so on. Loon sent me pictures of himself in his *birthday suit*......bwa ha ha. No, they were cats and dogs. Elayne just bought herself a dog before she came and it is so cute. Half Shih Tzu and half Havanese......a pure Cuban breed. Shoot, all the Yanks on here won't know what it is cuz they can't know anything about Cuba. ROFL!! I promise I will write you and Mikey very shortly and send you some pics of our creations. The local bead store guy really likes the stuff we are making. I am going to have to figure out how and where to sell it. eBay? Nah. Local store? Perhaps. Certainly not going to put an ad in the paper giving my address what with all the crime lately, lol. Elayne did an amazing copper & Swarovski necklace and is now working on yet another expensive gemstone one. Wahhhhhhh, I am going to miss her terribly, but we won't tell her!! It is her birthday tomorrow so have to take her clothes shopping. She leave at 4 pm on Saturday.
