Anti-spyware

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Caught this mentioned in the Langa Letter.

Grisoft, the company that has offered a “free for personal use” AVG anti-virus for years, is now offering an anti-spyware tool called ewido. Like AVG, there is a version that is free for personal use, and there’s a paid “Pro” version with a bit more functionality.

Apparently this is a pretty new tool, has anyone downloaded it yet? I might have to grab it and see how well it works, but I know I’m not a good test for an anti-spyware application, so I’m still interested in hearing what you guys think of it.

    So I’m giving Mailwasher a trial run, to see how it handles spam and stuff. My first impression is that it’s fairly cool, just having the ability to bounce emails is going to be fun. But the big functionality, at least to me, is the promised support for Hotmail accounts that’s coming in the next…

    File this under the headline of “old hoaxes never die”. I’ve been dealing with the jdbgmgr.exe hoax this morning. Apparently, someone with another organization fell for this one and passed it on.
