Spyware terminator

I've heard of it, but never used it.

Hope you find it of interest.

I use it on three rigs. So far, it has just found tracking cookies. The HIPS seems pretty active which I assume is a good thing.

I used it before when I had an AV that didn't have spyware protection included. It's resident protection works well, HIPS does it's job well. It did find a couple of things in the first full scan that my other anti-spyware apps missed.

It's good if you want a free anti-spyware app with resident protection. If you don't need the resident protection go with SuperAntiSpyware Free.

Last time I used it there was a few issues for me. Not sure of the latest build, but hopefully it has improved since then, but the bug can make a mess of your computer, like any software.

I thought it may have looked promising otherwise

Spyware Terminator looks tough and talks tough, but when it comes to protecting your system against malicious software and phishing, it's a wimp. It's free, so you might use its scanning tool as a second opinion alongside a more effective antispyware tool. I'd much rather pay for security done right than settle for mediocre security for free. It only takes one system-destroying infestation to ruin your whole day, after all.
