Super Anti Spyware: Better than the other Anti Spyware

Paying money for anti spyware is ludicrous. The free ones are just a good if not better. Some of the famous one such as SpyWall Anti Spyware 1.3.8.9, Windows Defender, Anonymizer Anti Spyware 3.1, and Spyware Doctor 4 cannot do the job of Super Anti Spyware. I have tested them all. Nothing is better.

I know there are some naysayers out there saying that Super Anti Spyware has spyware on it. I know for a fact this is not true. I happen to know that the

Super Anti Spyware is currently being used in various government entities.

The best thing about Super Anti Spyware is; it is free. This is if you don't use the real time protection, and scheduling scan etc. You get better

protection than some of the ones you pay for.

The free ones don't stand up to the challenge either. These include Spybot Search and Destroy, Adaware, and Ewido (during trial period).

What is the best Free Anti Spyware? Part 2

Well, I finally have a chance to make part 2 of the Free Anti Spyware post. I have been extremely busy. I had to work Saturday this week, which is extremely rarely. At any rate, I do have some interesting finds.

I launch all four Spyware, Ewido Anti Spyware, LavaSoft Adaware Personal Edition, SuperAntiSpyware.com's Super AntiSpyware and Safer Networking's SpyBot Search and Destroy.

Spybot Search and Destroy finished first. It did not show elapsed time. Spybot Search and Destroy detected 36 problems. I selected "Fix Selected Problems."

The next to finish was Adaware. Adware detected 87 critical objects, and 37 negligible objects. This totaled 124. I selected the listed critical objects, and negligible, and clicked next and quarantine, pop up appears, select ok.


The third program to finish was Ewido. It took 1 hour 18 mins. apprpoximately. 58 objects found. I clicked apply all actions.

The last one to finish was Super Anti Spyware and 192 threats detected. The elapsed time was 1 hour 34 mins. After the program finished detection, I click next, and then reboot system.

What is the best Free Anti Spyware?

The search for a do all, fix all, detect all Free Anti Spyware is analogous to searching for the Holy Grail. Recently, Grisoft purchased Ewido Networks, the purchase gives Grisoft a foothold into the Anti Spyware market. Although you can Ewido for free for 30 days. Is Ewido worth purchasing?

Are any of the Free Anti Spyware truely a notch above the competition?

I decided to conduct my own test. I installed Grisoft Ewido Anti Spyware, LavaSoft Adaware Personal Edition, SuperAntiSpyware.com's Super AntiSpyware and Safer Networking's SpyBot Search and Destroy. I installed all four of them. Ewido, Super Anti Spyware and Adaware SE did not require restarting the computer. SpyBot Search and Destroy did. In this first test, SpyBot Search and Destroy was not included in the test.

I loaded the updates for both Ewido, Super Anti Spyware, and Adaware. Then I conducted a scan of the system. Ewido detected 58 objects found, and 93 instances; the infected objects were tracking cookies. Super Anti spyware detected 193 threats detected, and the threats were from memory, file, and registry; they were tracking cookies as well. Adaware detected 87 critical objects, the critical objects were tracking cookies.

While scanning I noticed that both Ewido, and Super Anti Spyware had elapsed time, and Adaware did not. Ewido had a progress bar showing amounted completed. The rest did not.

I started the scan on Adaware, Super Anti Spyware, and Ewido at virtually the same time. Adaware completed its scan well before the the other two Super Anti Spyware, and Ewido. The elapsed time on Ewido was approximately 1 hour 32 mins. The elapsed time on Super Anti Spyware was 1 hour 28 mins and 43 sec. Adaware did not display elapsed time.

After the scan, I did not select to fix the infected objects, critical objects, or threats. I ran the scan again this time with all four Anti Spyware programs.

In my next post I will report the results of the four programs Spybot Search and Destroy, Ewido, Super Anti Spyware, and Adaware.
