It's not perfect without current updates but it is one more layer in the layered approach. -- God put me on this Earth to accomplish a certain number of things. Right now, I am so far behind I will never die.

SpywareGuard is not supposed to be updated, due to its hueristic scanning engine, read this thread from Javacool which explains why: »www.wilderssecurity.com/showthre···?t=23839 EDIT: BTW, I have used it on 3 different boxes, one Win 98, , 2 XPs, one home, one Pro, I never hear anything unless I make changes myself(Pro box is test box, its only barked once)Its a great lil app.

SpywareGuard used to get regular updates. I just did a cursory search and couldn't find it, but in addition to the Wilders post Javacool did state in another post somewhere that SG is at a point where it needs a total rebuild to do any additional updates. Yes, it is still a good product and still offers protection but it does need updating.
