Anti-spyware

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Caught this mentioned in the Langa Letter.

Grisoft, the company that has offered a “free for personal use” AVG anti-virus for years, is now offering an anti-spyware tool called ewido. Like AVG, there is a version that is free for personal use, and there’s a paid “Pro” version with a bit more functionality.

Apparently this is a pretty new tool, has anyone downloaded it yet? I might have to grab it and see how well it works, but I know I’m not a good test for an anti-spyware application, so I’m still interested in hearing what you guys think of it.
