    Ad-aware used to be such a good program. I used it for about 10 years and it caught just about everything on my computer. Since they upgraded to the Anniversary Edition, it is completely useless. I have a computer with xp and a gig of ram which is plenty for xp and it constantly locks up my computer and uses almost half of my RAM. Locks up the computer to the point that I can’t even use it, even when it is not scanning. I tried to go back to some of the older versions, but they made it where you cannot update them anymore. One only gets to 5% and will not update, the other gives and error retrieving update at 84%. Since the new version is useless and locks up the computer and they have disabled the older versions from being updated, I am forced to switch to another program. I am going to go back to Mal-Ware Bytes Anti-Malware as that does not lock up my computer and does the job.

  • A fascinating discussion is definitely worth comment.
    I think that you need to publish more on this topic, it may not be a taboo subject but usually people do not talk about these subjects.
    To the next! Kind regards!!

    Greetings from Carolina! I’m bored at work so I decided to check out your website on my iphone during lunch break. I love the knowledge you provide here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home.
    I’m amazed at how fast your blog loaded on my phone .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .

    . Anyways, awesome site!

  • Howdy this is kinda of off topic but I was wanting to know
    if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code
    with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
