Giant Antispyware

[peat moss]

ive got a problem i put my date as far as it would go and said my subscription was expired so how do i do a clean install of this so i can get it working?

Put the time back , and reboot!

Well just uninstalled spybot , don't see a need now . I'll stay with Giant for now. I was worried about the crack from nsanes site but seems to work! I'm still at 7 days left after a week ! Any coments, has anyone tryed it?

I've run it for a while, it is a good prog, way supireor to Spybot and Ad aware, picked up a few little trasures
Having said that I updated my Pest Patrol and ran it 1 hour after GASW and PP found 98 files including Trojan downloaders and a shitload of low risk stuff that it would seem Giant had missed.

This is my personal experience, I don't like to say that it's good or bad, it's definitely good but not as good as I thought.

well, Microsoft knows of its potential. They'll definitely want to expand their business to the security side. Microsoft had, in the past, acquired a relatively new antivirus company, called AVK i think, which would've been just as good as NOD32 and Kaspersky.

I was going to post or PM you about that . A Russian Co. too I think. What happened to that I wonder?

[gildan2020]

we'll never know, that AV company would've gain popularity like Giant if it weren't acquired by Microsoft so soon.
Ahh..."young stars always die sooner"
