Caught anything with Spybot?

[slycat]

Its real weird..i've been scanning and for the past one month i have found ZERO exploits/spyware...
Some other people use my system sometimes and i basically surf anywhere i want so i assume some
of those are bound to tag on but nada...it comes back with CONGRATULATIONS...maybe its broke?

anyone know a site i can browse to that will definitely gimme a spyware to test?...coz i don't believe
i'm consistently so perfect 😀

and i haven't cleared my cache/cookies forever too...and settings for internet are at MEDIUM.

It's possible to have no security settings (security disabled/low) in IE and not get spyware with how careful you are with your browsing. Don't be surprised if you don't have any.

It all depends on where on the web you're going and what you're installing on your system. It also doesn't hurt to update those definitions once in a while... 😉

i use adware, and it has caught something call data miner. how do i get rid of it permanently w/o having to scanning for spyware everyday?

 

[slycat]

i update it before running a scan each and every time.

You mean a cookie? If you use IE you can block cookies from certain sites.

Yeah, I've caught tons of stuff using spybot. It helps to keep it updated also and to immunize.

Have you done all the updates and such to Spybot and/or Adaware? I always find things with it.
