doug Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Please forgive my hignorance but what does this thing do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 There is a particularly nasty form of spyware called Coolweb, they keep changing it and the way it attacks our systems in an effort to evade spyware killers. Because there are so many variants it can be a long job trying to recognise it and get rid of it. Coolweb Shredder is a tool that you can use to clean your system from a cool web infection if you have one on your PC.Cool web Chronicles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ellas Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 sorry for being dim but do we use this only when needed or can we run it anyway just to check for spyware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ellas Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 so why bother posting updates then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 to make sure that you have the most up to date tool.... no use having an outdated version is there... it will miss stuff!! :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ellas Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 yes but my point is if you need to use the tool you would download the latest version anyway,as its not like say adaware which you use often what is the point of posting updates, may as well just leave a link to the web page where the latest version if needed can be downloaded.

nellie2 Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 yes.... but what if you are hosting the application on your space for people to download??? Or what if you downloaded it and used it last time........ and need to use it again and you still have the old version?????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
