  Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus Starter Edition

  Completely Useless in every sense!

  by: andyinteractive on 26-Apr-2008 04:04:05 AM

  Cons: Firstly...Windows security alerts does not recognise this junk...and secondly, there is no way of changing the real-time on guard facility. When you click the tab to turn on the real time guard, a box appears stating that your computer will be at risk and the list that appears under this information has absolutely no facility to activate the on-guard protection. The only options it gives you is a time limit from 5 minutes - to permenantly disable this feature! (Have they forgotten to add an 'activate' tab? - it seems like it.)

  Having searched through all the other options, everything is set as activated.

  Not sure if this programme is one of these where you have to upgrade to activate this feature...but i wouldn't use this if i was paid to.

  Complete and utter junk!

  Not bad.

  Pros: The fact that it doesn't interfere with other antivirus programs (Mcafee on mine) is awesome. Having antispyware and antivirus in one program is handy. The full version is worth paying for.

  Cons: This program has a large memory footprint, that they need to improve on. It's at a lack of other tools as well, would it kill them to add "any" extras?
