Good product, happy customer

Purchased this based off the PC Magazine award and very happy. Spyware is one of those things that you just have to keep searching for a solution if one product doesn't fix it, 95% solution is not enough. After numerous free and one other paid products happy to find Spyware Doctor was enough that I didn't need to keep searching anymore. Only downside is that I still need to keep running another virus product, looking forward to being able to have solutions all from one company.

Delivers as promised

Here is a product from a company that is better known for their registry cleaning tool Registry Mechanic. Spyware Doctor doesn't fall short. I know someone who had been using AdAware for quite sometime. The free Adaware is a good program but it is slow. On one computer where a search for anti-spyware was being made it would simply hang the PC when an attempt was made to minimize or close the application. Only a reboot would fix the problem. The free Spybot Search and Destroy is also a slow program. Both searching and fixing problems as well as for downloading updates can take time. However Spyware Doctor isn't. The program is zippy fast and constantly pops messages prompting you to take necessary action. As other reviewers have reported, it located spyware that both AdAware and Spybot had missed. Updates are automatically detected and are a breeze to download. If you are thinking of a better anti-spyware program or are thinking of making a switch from AdAware or Spybot Search and Destroy check out Spyware Doctor. It has a good (if not the best) rating on CNet.com.

DON'T EXPECT SUPPORT!

SIMPLY PUT, THE PROGRAM WILL CAUSE GLITCHES IN YOUR SYSTEM AND SLOW YOUR P.C. TO A CRAWL PARTICULARLY IF IT IS ADDED TO YOUR START MENU. YOU WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO OBTAIN SUPPORT. VERY DISAPPOINTED USER.
