Re: AMMYY Scam

Malwarebytes scanner and remover has always been free, it's the realtime protection and scheduler modules that is chargeable for a one off fee of £19.95

Re: AMMYY Scam

+5 for Malwarebytes. Also - Trojan Remover is good for a 2nd opinion.

Re: AMMYY Scam

Personally I use Malwarebytes and S&D Spybot.. Had some stuff found by one and not the other but both tend to do a great job and S&D's teatimer keeps track of all the start-up settings

Re: AMMYY Scam

I use malwarebytes, and I seem to recall I heard that a Microsoft techie recommended it.

OOOPs just a tad late!
