GA Russell Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Six months ago I rented two programs to keep my computer clean and speedy - RegHunter and SpyHunter. The cost was and is $70 for the two, for six months. I suppose they both worked, but all RegHunter found in my registry to remove were temporary files, and all SpyHunter found to remove was lots of adware. I don't think that that justifies $140 a year, so I didn't renew. Apparently my malwarebytes is doing a good job at keeping viruses out. Can someone recommend a good program or two which will do what these two programs did, for a price much lower than $140 per year? Thanks!

Scott Dolan Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Why pay anything? When I was using Windoh's I went with a triumverate of Malwarebytes, Adaware, and AVG. All free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA Russell Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Thanks a lot marcello and Scott! I'll follow up on what you suggest. marcello, do you have personal experience with the shareware you link to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcello Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 GA - I have a Mac ( at home) so there hasn't been much of a need, but I do have ClamXav that I run every once in a while. It always finds nothing. I have a Windows laptop at work ( I hate it, but there are Windows based programs that I have to use.) that I run Malwarebytes on and it always finds something shitty. Sort of like Windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
