Re: ASW Vendors in La-La Land

Thank you for that wonderful post. I have uninstalled Ad-Aware as I no longer trust Lavasoft and their Ad-Aware product as a tool to identify software that may be malicious or annoying.

Re: ASW Vendors in La-La Land


The Ad-Aware "deal" (if that's what it is) is the only somewhat surprising part of this.

I've viewed Lavasoft with distrust for YEARS now.

Recently I've used it once or twice in a pinch. I now feel very bad about that decision.

Lavasoft hasn't been on the side of the angels in quite a long time.

Long live Kolla (Spybot). He may be the only trustworthy provider of this stuff.

Re: ASW Vendors in La-La Land

If Patrick Kolla is the only one continuing the good fight, then we should all probably help by sending him some monetary support.
