When i run Pest Patrol after having installed Clean KMD 2.4.4 ( link from KLBoard )
i get a notification stating there is Kazaa Adware running on my PC !

Log states :

Pest: KaZaA
Pest Info: Category: Adware Background
File Info: In Registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\kazaa
Certainty: Confirmed Threatens: Confidentiality, Liability


Pest: KaZaA
Pest Info: Category: Adware Background
File Info: In Registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\kazaa
Certainty: Confirmed Threatens: Confidentiality, Liability

See for more info the Pest Patrol link : http://pestpatrol.com/PestInfo/k/kazaa.asp


Question is : is Clean KMD not so clean ? :unsure:

no, theyre just telling you that it detects kazaa, not spyware.
kazaa lite/clean kazaa uses the same registry keys for user settings.

okay thanx for letting me know !

Otherwise Pest Patrol is excellent ( and can be manually updated on the pestpatrol site .....) - i wholeheartedly recommend it.

You better use Ad-Aware... PestPatrol sometimes removes to much, so you have problems when you reboot your computer, so watch out!!! :o
