    While I would disagree about Firefox having more security holes than IE, even considering it were true, the lower market saturation by Firefox and Safari translate into fewer browser hijacks being written using their APIs, making the potential for exposure smaller from the outset.

    Does the trial version work? I don't mind buying it, but I'd like to try it out first - are y'all buying it, or using trial? I don't wanna run the thing and then it tell me I have to buy it to remove what it finds.

    When he first posted it I was like :rolleyes:. Because I've clicked on waay too many of Profs "links".

    But when Braves said it worked, I downloaded it and it comes with a free version that has a partial scan and a full scan. I did the full scan and it cleaned everything. Thanks Prof.

    Certain things that Spybot missed that this picked up. I had a bug that would redirect my clicks to random links.

    UGH!!!! No luck with it for me at work. Started having major problems after installing it and running a scan. It found ZERO infections after running for over two hours, the computer has never been slower (way more disk access activity than before) and it has crashed a few times. I am uninstalling as I type.
