Still junk. From my last usage it didn't detected anything,so i wouldn't recommend to use it. Use Malwarebytes instead.

So very true.

Used it about 7-10 years ago, now days it's junk. Also at that time ad-aware, as combo with spybot, today both programs are as it was said earlier are junk.

It was used before. Now experts for scanner use better tools like Malwarebytes.

It seems that the version 1.6, maybe it's the best, still receives updates.
However, in my opinion, fails to compete with Malwarebytes.

 

[MalwareT]

None of experts (neither am i when i'm assisting) are using it anymore.

 

[McLovin]

Do people actually still use this?

Spybot? My mother i used at least 9 or 10 years,at that time was one of the few things that are used in security.

I think the time they implemented to AV version is already became a downfall from numerous test, its good performance are way back when the technology isn't yet fully matured.

Oh!! is this still there? Its been ages when I tried this. With more advanced alternatives like Malwarebytes I see no reason why should one even consider this.
