Did you mean Bitdefender QuickScan and Kaspersky Security Scan, and Spybot v2 or v1.6?

Also there are few changes in the Config Wizard, if you feel like updating them. ;)

I was referring to their free online scanners:)
Also not using Spybot anymore.

Bitdefender and Kaspersky, don't have Free Online Scanners, unless it's still available in your region?

The BD Online scanner works (page) but when it comes to Chrome to add the extension, it crashes. Probably my chrome only.

I also tried IE and nothing happened. Just keep staring at the page.

Not sure, I've used Bitdefender QS (Extension) which scans 32-bit processes in running memory, that's the only one I know that exists.

BitDefender discontinued their online scanner awhile back, now all they offer is QuickScan as a browser extension. It only scans memory and doesn't remove any infections, if any infection are detected it directs you to download and install paid version of their products. It also has a lot of false positives. More of an advertisement browser extension then anything else.

Thanks.:D

Well, I have used it without any problem. It is independet developer software so I really dont know what happens when you have problems with it. I have never had any problem. So my take is uset it, give it a try and see how it goes. Cleans pretty good, some files which are not cleaned by CCleaner. You can read more about it on the developers website joshcellsoftwares.com
