AVG anit-spy and Object Data Question



Does anyone know if AVG Anti-Spyware messes with "Object Data" as a certain anti-virus program did?
Would appreciate any replies on this. I only need to use it but very briefly to scan a new computer with a few newly installed programs two of which I am not absolutely feeling comfortable with although they are Shareware.
Thank you for your reply.

Don't know if it does for sure but if there are any doubts try SuperAntiSpyware. Free version.

Works very well and will do a good job for you.

Know what.....I am not going to install any anti-spyware at all. After seeing how they are messing up peoples computers its just not worth it...going by the posts here at the forum. If the firewall notices any odd traffic I will simply throw on a cleam image.
Danny thanks for the reply.

I've never, ever heard of any AVG product doing that so don't worry.

Btw, SuperAntiSpyware is trustworthy - many cleanup experts make use of it.
