Spybot -- Ad-Aware


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

I had just updated my Ad-Aware from 2007 version to 2008 version ( free

). I started the Spybot and the following warning appeared : ( see

screenshot link )

 

'ImageGrotto: Free Image and Screenshot Hosting'

(http://imagegrotto.com/view-Capture19051.JPG)

 

Basically it warned of possible incompatibility between the 2.

I had no such warning with the 2007 version, and I can't get my 2007

version back. So, should I just ignore the warning ? Thank you.

Hi T-4-2,

 

I would just ignore it to. I had both running on my system without any

problems.

I concur...ignore it. But I would give SuperAntiSpyware a try and also

Malwarebytes Antimalware...they seem to have superceded Spybot and

AdAware for effectiveness.

I recieved that same pop-up. Click the link, It will take you to Spybots

web page where you will get info about the incompatibility. I can't

recall what it says now, and I can't find the page, but I remember it

was something insignificant.

I've learned that whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.

I'll second [locoeng] comments on SUPERAntiSpyware & Malwarebytes

Antimalware superseding SpyBot and Ad-Aware for effectiveness.
