I have spybot too I haven't had any problems with it....yet.

I did have adaware but the last update I got but stopped it from working.

 

what version of spybot you running? as when I tried the 1.5 version it seems slow compared to the current version 1.4

I am running version 1.5.2 I always thought spybot was slow

 

PC tools offer a demo version or spybot.

PCTOOLS WEBSITE

They also have threatfire which protects you against malware and it's free, it's the full vesion and not the cut down one like some of the other on the market

 

thanks guys, I give them both a try over the weekends

Thanks for sharing this! I love finding freeware that is good!

 

In my opinion forget spybot.. try spyware doctor:

http://www.pctools.com/spyware-doctor/ - which i think cheekymonkey has mentioned just so its clear its a trial not freeware

also another one to consider is xoftspy:

Try Linux. You won't have malware problems. You won't have to run any AV software or anything like adaware or spybot.
