Probably the easiest thing to have on your computer to warn you about strange start-up additions after a malware incident on your computer - or even without one actually. A must have!
I especially like the start-up notices "Scotty" gives you when you install software you actually want,lol. Really nails Quicktime & Real Player.
A must have program. Well worth the money.
I really like this programm because it will tell you immediately if "unwanted" software tries to install on your computer; you have the choice to keep it or to get rid of it.
