Poor troll

I never defended the company, try reading with your eyes open next time. The program fixed my computer and I won't deny it just because the company is sleazy. I hope people don't install it as well.

Well it's possible they've changed their marketing in the space of a year, which is how long this thread has been dead for

Talk about bringing up an ancient thread! The conclusion was the SpywareBot got rid of a lot of my spyware that no other program did, but we have concluded the program is no good because people...

In that case, I see why you detect it as malware. Thanks for the information :)

I agree, as I've said on this thread at least a million times now.


That's interesting, I never thought it was free. I wonder why people think that. Doesn't it say when it's finished the scan...

I had an adware problem that another anti-spyware program fixed. Here is stuff copied from it's logs, hopefully it will be added to the SpyBot definitions.
I'm not exactly sure which of these is...

Great idea, thanks :)

Exactly, thanks for being honest :)
So the detection is a protest against the company as opposed to the program actually being malware.
Doesn't that seem a little dishonest? I mean, telling your...

It's obvious you aren't going to address the point at hand, we are just going around in circles. I keep asking questions and you guys keep giving answers that don't relate to the questions, I get...

Why are you spybot people laughing? This is serious. First MisterW makes fun of it and now you, I don't understand it.

I haven't seen any reasons on here so far. What are the reasons you have?

Here's a simple illustration:
I had adware
SpywareBot detected it
I removed it and now as a result of that detection I...

Haha yeah I've noticed it does that. Products from the legitimate company PC Tools (like Registry Mechanic) operate in the exact same way as well, but they are still good and widely recommended...

I can verify that the most recent version of SpywareBot, 1.4.1.2, doesn't create any toolbars or popups, it helped me to remove them, something no other anti-spyware program did.
They may not be the...

What does it do that can be dangerous to computers?

I realise that people definitely confuse the two programs, but as a long-time user of SpyBot I didn't have them confused. I'm sure SpyBot detects spyware that SpywareBot doesn't, but the opposite is...

Firstly, I know it's pretty obvious they are copying SpyBot's name, and I don't like that.
But in SpyBot it picks it up as spyware. I'm not sure if it's spyware or not, but I know I had adware that...
