Re: Spysweeper

I downloaded Spysweeper V5.0.5.1286 on Monday. I must say that I like it better than the previous V4.5. With all of the shields active in V4.5, My IE would sometimes hang when trying to open web pages. With V5.0 with all 13 shields active I don't seem to have the probem with IE freezing at certain points. I see that webroot got rid of the service called "WSSDK" and replaced it with something else.

I saw three processes connected to Spy Sweeper:

SpySweeper.exe
SpySweeperUI.exe
ssu.exe

It ended up being a pretty heavy load overall. At boot one of those (SpySweeper.exe or SpySweeperUI.exe) was the top memory hog on my system.
