(well ok it was yesterday) :D
I had it yesterday too. ;)

Doesn't matter, it's new to most of us. Still one of the best freeware proggies out there. :)

Yeah, if you want realtime scanning you need to get purchased. I use it with SpywareBlaster and I can't remember the last time I got more that 1 or 2 spywares... if any at all.

BTW, ver 1.02 is now available for download. ;)
 
Doing a *deep* scan with it now.. already found 16 critical objects.. DOH!..

Haven't verified the Spybot thing yet, cuz I have both.. will report my findings..

be aware the new ad watch version is much much resources (CPU) hungrier, sometimes producing jerky dvd playing on some systems :(
 
Haven't noticed that.. Seems to be pretty stable from what I can tell.. I like the new version.. Lets you click on the X for Ad-watch and it doesn't prompt you "Are you sure you want to close".. It actually minimizes to the tray like it SHOULD HAVE last time.. ;)
