Overall Evaluation:

Duration of ownership: 5 Months

Strengths: well spybot dosent have any strengths so very little cause crashes and system prformance

Weaknesses: dosent find all spyware and threats just overlooks them never scans the files and folders in pc just runs a bot check looking for something in its library of threats so how can you say you do this when you dont even sacan the system files just runs a bot check never did scan the hard drive or registry or memory just looked for the bots all it deticted was bad cookies not spyware and then when time to remove it all he ll breaks loose

Overall Evaluation: my overall evaluation of spybot as is not good a pice of junk i use to use it but i removed it saysy it does things imunizing all for internet explorer some people dont use ie so then buts a tool bar in internet explorer so if you dont use internet explorer its just sitting there and then every time you try to install sonething whith administer privalges it pops up sayin user decionwas made so ehith all this hash a bot its not very good although they say it is good but use it and you will be surprised

Duration of ownership: 0 Years

Strengths: Excellent and fast!

Weaknesses: None

Overall Evaluation: I will not use any other software except for Spybot Search & Destroy!

Duration of ownership: 2 Years

Strengths: Finds things the other 2 programs don't.

Weaknesses: Slow and calls out a Registry repair program for remval.

Overall Evaluation: Does alright for what I use it for.

Duration of ownership: 2 Years

Strengths: Rich of features, some of which are unique in the class (immunization, HOSTS list, the little game well hided, the detailed description of startup folder and of threats found, generous i-forum support). Also, the interface problem are no more in version 1.5.

Weaknesses:

Overall Evaluation: Necessary though incompletely self-contained (well... nothing is!) an item in every user's diagnostics-and-repair virtual toolkit.

Duration of ownership: 3 Years

Strengths: few

Weaknesses: too many

Overall Evaluation: I used this one for years, it interfered with many antivrus programs ..only gave me a few results.I then used AdAware SE the older version , which i really like better, but now that i upgraded the adaware 07 i may go back to this one, as the new adaware07 doesnt do what I thought it was capable of .i like thed old adaware se..

Duration of ownership: 2 Years

Strengths: Low memory usage, minimal system requirements, free software.

Weaknesses: Not as thorough as stronger, paid antispyware apps like Webroot Spysweeper.

Overall Evaluation: Spybot Search and Destroy is a decent antispyware app that is useful for picking out some antispyware threats, but is useless if not used with another antispyware app, like Lavasoft Ad-Aware. Unfortunately, the combination of both programs doesn't match up to paid antispyware apps.

Duration of ownership: 2 Years

Strengths: It seems to work well if you can get the updates.

Weaknesses: Updates are hard to get, and sometimes impossible.

Overall Evaluation: I have used several different anti-spyware programs, and Spybot is the only one I ever decided to quit using. This is because the updates are so hard to get that I often gave up. There are several different uopdate sites to choose from, and some are in other parts of the world, and often, all of them are too busy to use..

Duration of ownership: 1 Years

Strengths: free! and it works along with AVG antivirus and Smoothwall firewall, I have no trouble at all as long as they get updated along with microsoft products.

Weaknesses: I don't know of any.

Overall Evaluation: great program , I do a manual update. the cosmetic error was fixed lately.

Duration of ownership: 3 Years

Strengths: Is very clear in pinpoint where the problem that it cant remove is.

Weaknesses: scanning speed is slow.

Overall Evaluation: very good, shouly be in everyones anti malware arsenal
