  good tool against "rogue" antispyware applications and other malware

  by: Pcfreakske2000 on 07-Apr-2008 08:12:14 AM

  Pros: Scans fast, also updates are easy to download.

  Easy to use interface.

  It didn't find anything on my computer, so that must mean it's clean. I try not to install any rogue antispyware scanners, though. LOL But this tools helps to get rid of "rogue" antispyware apps that some virusses or spyware install.

  Cons: None that I can think of.

  Yet Another Malware Remover

  by: Qontrol on 25-May-2008 02:40:59 AM

  Pros: Fast scanning, clean GUI.

  Cons: Database is small, most of the well established anti spyware software can detect and remove the same malware (eg counterspy).
