Guest fk5 Bairn Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I used spybot, but they seemed to have stopped updates a while back Are you using version 1.2 ? they are now on version 1.3 that might explain your lack of updates. The microsoft beta version of antispyware is quite good. Im trialing it just now. Only use it if you use genuine software though. It does check that as well.
