[dba-Tech] SpySweeper

Jon,
Check for an update. IIRC the beta of 5 did this and maybe the first release
version but I think they patched it.

I like SpySweeper in that it does it job very well but I've found it to be
somewhat of a resource hog. It seems to require a very fast CPU and lot of
RAM to not be noticed. Running it on the same system with Symantec's NAV or
NIS 2006 leaves the end user with little resources for themselves :o)

What is your experience?

Anyone out there use Webroot Spysweeper version 5?
 
I've had it installed for a while, and it's pretty good, but I've just
discovered 65000 temporary files in it's folder... they're all 0k in size,
so it's only using 17mb, but still, 65k files is a lot...
