Friggin' spyware!!!

A couple of weeks ago I had an especially nasty (in every sense of the word) piece of spyware on my computer that I couldn't seem to get rid of. At the time I was using AdAware and SpyBot which usually worked well. Or so I thought. A couple of times I thought I had gotten rid of the nasty only to have it show up again the next day.

WinXP News to the rescue. In the newsletter I receive from them they endorsed a product called Counterspy. Here's what they say about it:

CounterSpy was chosen as PC World's BEST BUY. For good reason:

I took advantage of the 15 day eval and gave it a try. It not only removed the nasty I had been trying to get rid of but found several others that SpyBot and AdAware had overlooked. Needless to say I plunked down my $20 and bought it. I have not regretted it. It's a very powerful tool.

In today's newsletter, WinXP News announced "CounterSpy Wins PC WORLD BEST BUY". Read about it here.
