Just an fyi – Lavasoft released Ad-Aware v1.06 a few minutes ago. There are many improvements with this version, but most of all, it’s faster. It’s definitely worth getting.



Improvements:

• Disk-scan is approximately 30 % faster

• CSI scan is now more efficient

• Added "Scan for low risk threats" option, to scan for targets with low TAC index

• Ad-Watch CSI engine performance highly improved; using less CPU and Memory

as well as having a smaller footprint

• GUI adapted to use the new TAC

As always we have it listed here on our mirrors.

Might have to give Lavasoft a second chance here. I ditched the last version when the news broke that Lavasoft was taking $$$ to remove certain software from their black list.

A couple of links it is old news so hence the links are old as well

You have to take almost everything you read with a grain of salt these days including those links but like I said I ditched Addaware and started using MS Anti Spyware and Sybot Search and Destroy and so far all has been golden as far as spyware goes.
