"Not worth time or effort to download."
Pros: Helps identify any infected files and further specifies which files need to be fixed.
Cons: Program does not assist you with the removal of infected files prior to purchase.
Summary: In my oppionion this program is worthless. I expected to come to this website and download the latest program for antispyware to find an effective program that would improve the performance on my notebook. This program did not fullfill my expectatio... read more >>

Version: Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus Starter Edition 6.0.0.362
"Excellent, will never surf the net without it again."
Pros: It's been very effective for me, I coughed up for the full version a couple years ago and I'm running it and Registry Mechanic on 2 PC's. Don't have near the issues I used to.

Version: Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus Starter Edition 6.0.0.362
Pros: Nothing at all
Cons: In my book this software is a false positive, and if it is called spyware doctor with antivirus, then why are you required to purchase the antivirus engine? What's up with that?
Summary: I much prefer the regular spyware doctor for helping to rid my computer of spyware and adware. It gets the job done just the way I like it.

Version: Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus Starter Edition 6.0.0.362
"A potentially excellent but currently troubled program"
Pros: Catches more bad stuff than other programs
Cons: Way too many compatibility issues--remnants of AOL or other anti spyware or antivirus cause catastrophic slowdowns. Updates are inadequately tested before being dumped on unsuspecting customers, with painful and time-consuming resluts.
Summary: It seems that any bits of old leftover programs cause problems. Updates to the program--in the last week for example--seem to not be tested, and users have to spend too much time researching why their computers suddenly slowed down, only to (eventu... read more >>
