Solve : Quick question on AVG...?

Answer»

Does AVG Free Edition search for adware and spyware along with viruses?Not that I know of... If your computer is compatible, then USE Microsoft AntiSpyware BETA. Best spyware bloodhound out there  

[glb]Flame[/glb]Thanks a bunch Flame  AdAware and Spybot are both free, and not Microsoft.  Microsoft AntiSpyware BETA is free...

Lets not forget what "beta" stands for. It is a program in the works and
the users of beta programs are the field testers.......you take your chances,
the same goes for "free programs" again field TESTING.qzqhk2

 How long has the "beta" version been out now?  It's been over a year, the first version was released January 6, 2005.  So, I'd hardly consider that still "beta".  Why they haven't dropped "beta", I have no idea, but it's clearly been used by MANY thousands of users by now, and it seems to have a good track record.  
They will drop the 'beta' when they start charging money for it.
Last time they MUTED that idea the public backlash scared them.... 'People Power'
I think they're now between a rock & a hard place, they don't know what to do with it. No it does not. I use AVG and also use AdAware SE, SpyBotSD and SpywareBlaster all of which are freeware.

FREEWARE
