Title: Is this safe to download?

Seems like a pretty good thing to have on your computer, but why is it free? Too good to be true?

They will scan your computer and find all the pests, but if you want them removed you will have to pay....

Been reading the Monster thread too have you Byron?  ;)

I'm also intrigued to hear from anyone who uses this.

BTW my post was a guess, most spyware companies advertise themselves as 'free' like this. I have no experience of this particular company.

There are others too. One callled Bazooka

is pretty decent too.

If you run adaware and spybot plus another free one, you've pretty much got everything covered.
