Re: Ad-Aware 2007 Free 7.0.1.2 Released! Not for Vista

I just installed the free version which automatically uninstalled the old one. It appears there is now a new automatic service running all the time:

AAWSERVICE.EXE

This service is taking up almost 40 MB of system ram even though the free version is just an "on demand" scanner. I looked for an option to disable it but do not see one.

I disabled the ad-aware service and then the program would not run. I decided to uninstall the entire program and wait until a newer version comes out that does not force me run a service all of the time.
