Do any of you know anything about this program? I found it listed in a computer mag. Is it a good program? Thanks.

I have not used it, but I have used something simular "HiJackThis".
Looked at the reviews all has 5 stars.
It has alot of good controls.

I will download it :wink:

I've download it and here's my view:
Good GUI. The main menu most advance users can get to through Windows like Process,Services and Autostart. Although processes has a icon on most to help you know what it is that helps.
Ports and processes are the most important to control adware or malware.

What I don't like about it is that it isn't a stand along you have to install :roll: unlike HiJackThis.

I give it a 4 out of 5

I have seen Highjack this and like it, but it is very confusing unless you are technical enough to use it.

There is a website that you can copy and paste the report into and get some advice on what to remove and keep.

This seems somewhat similar to Spybot: Search and Destroy. Right now this is my only protection on my laptop.
