Jon,
Even more impressive - it runs well on my lowly 2,4 Ghz P4 :o) The 16 items
could have been remnants from another AS's cleaning that didn't get all the
pieces. (I'm trying to be an optimist ;o)

I’ve just downloaded and installed Counter Spy - £15 for 3 years worth of
updates was too silly a price to pass up. This evening, I’d run Spybot 1.4,
Ad-Aware 1.06, ZoneAlarm’s AS tool and diskclean before I ran Counter Spy

it picked up 16 items that needed treating.

 

It’s good – runs nice and small in the background, even on my E6600 Core 2
Duo with 2gb RAM ;-)

 

I’m kinda worried as to how long some of these things have been on my system
though, although I’ve only had this new build installed for just over a
month, it picked up things in the windows folder on the old hard drive
 who
knows what’s been allowed to happen? Scary stuff!
