No i'm not talking about upgrading your PC for PS although that is indeed important.

I'm talking about a lovely program called ad-aware. I never though upgrading your software version was that important but i just ran ad-aware 5.6, it got about 10 spy wares, downloading 6.0 and ran it again, 6.0 got 282. :lol:

Never underestimate an upgrade! :)

Free your PC from spam !!

I DEFINITELY recommend this program. On my old PC, the first time I ran it, I had a ridiculous number of spyware programs. It was one of the very first things I downloaded on my new PC.

Not only ressources but also time and pain. Some spy-wares keep pissing me off, mostly the ones that add a tool bar to your IE without any notice.

Works machine totally clean under 5.83, its now found 54 objects :eek:

Most of them are cookies, couple of exes.

Noticed that 6.0 seems to run faster too.

Home machine is running 5.8! Wonder what I will find when I get home and run 6.0! :eek:

Holy shit, with the new reference file 04.03.2003 its found an additional 33 new objects! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

I recommend you upgrade your reference files by hitting the Check for updates now button in the status bar at the bottom
