2.0 out of 5 stars Spy Sweeper, January 3, 2007

I don't even have it on my machine at the moment. Get that, you pay for something and don't use it. The irritating fact that it holds up your computer for a length of time at start up and you can't do anything. Its just like the computer is locked up and then finally Spy Sweeper releases it and you can go to work. Very Very irritating!

3.0 out of 5 stars Excellent phone support, slows system, doesn't catch everything, November 25, 2007

I bought Spysweeper to try to get rid of an infection. Their phone support was excellent. However, the software slows the start-up considerably and freezes the system when it's run. It did not succeed in removing infection either.
