Hmmmm, I'm a bit suspicious now. I've had 2 virus infections since I installed it, and on both occasions I wasn't even "actively" on the internet. I got a bit pissed off as well with its persistence trying to sell me its paid version. It didn't even bow out gracefully when I uninstalled it.

It even left something behind. Go to :
and click on: "Online Spyware Scanner". It found mal-ware left behind even though I had uninstalled. Spybot hadn't found it!!!!
Worth adding the Spyware site to Lizard's Locker.

Which just goes to prove all spyware programs are only as good as the person writing the programs

Case in point

I ran spybot & adaware

Adaware found the malware but for some inexplicable reason left an active
registry key behind.Probably means the malware has mutated a little to avoid detection

Just ran your program and removed the offending bit and came across this site from it
