Boris Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Malwarebytes - probably worth it (for assurance as AVG might miss something) What version of Spybot are you using - the old 1.6.2.46 or the new fangled 2.1 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using Spybot 1.6.2, are you inferring that the new version is not worth using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
