I've just tried the trial version. It found a dialler that had snuck in (although it doesn't seem to be active) in spite of Norton, Spybot and Zonealarm.

An interesting package Lizard

Just downloaded the trial...ran it....found 3 pieces of adware that had been neutralised already even though the scan said infected

Ran Adaware and found 25 more adware programs

Ran Spybot and found 3 more adware programs

Both related to the downloaded program

Not a nice way to advertise a free trial for their product IMO

Might just be coincidence but the Scan took ages

cheers

Buttsie! it would find them, if you had only nuetralised/quarantined them! you should run spybot and then get rid of spyware, not just quarantine it, maybe thats what it was, I ran it and it seemed fine, and it found a dialler for Mart, but if it was no good for you, please accept my humble apologies.

ps: did you read the instructions, (will not work down under) or in the presence of alcohol and beans, lol.......

My grumble was that the 28 bits of adware came with the stop-still free trial program

They weren't on my system before I downloaded stop-still

After i had done the stop-still scan which turned up the 3 bits of adaware(which were already neutralised)
I decided to run adaware and spybot and thats when i found the
25 + 3 bits of adware had come with the stop-still free trial

Nothing wrong with beans and alcohol to clear the mind and everything else...lol

Yes, but did you get the free blow job that came with it ?, or did that not work either?

My apologies-totally forgot to mention it due to my grief at the adware invasion

You know how it is when every free trial comes with a BJ(apart from steve56 who gets a Mini Bj) you become rather blase about it all
