Version: Bazooka Adware and Spyware Scanner 1.13.03
"Free doesn't mean its actually any good."
Pros: Its free.
It has a nice look I suppose.
Cons: Scan times are ridiculously too low to indicate any kind of decent scanning engine.
Detection rates are horrible in comparison to the Big 5: Microsoft Antispyware, Webroot SpySweeper, Lavasoft Ad-Aware, Spybot Search & Destroy, McAfee Antispyware.

Version: Bazooka Adware and Spyware Scanner 1.13.03
Pros: Fast, but so far didnt found any spyware/addware.
Recommended as a backup antispyware but not use it for main cleaning tools.

Version: Bazooka Adware and Spyware Scanner 1.13.03
Pros: I always run Bazooka first, because it can detect any spyware and adware in less than 10 seconds. If it shows any, then I run my spy cleaners,(which are all slow),and clean the infections. As you know, Bazooka won't clean the spyware. I think it makes a nice addition to your anti-spy arsenal, and recommend it because it does a good job-and it's FREE! 5 Stars and Two thumbs Up!

Version: Bazooka Adware and Spyware Scanner 1.13.03
"No major flaws, but no major vote of confidence from me."
Pros: Incredibly quick scan and update system and considering this fact on it's own (ie: check the cons) it would be a good program to use as a pre detection before running very slow scanners & removers.
Cons: The speed of the scan is worrying in a sense as one is left to ponder over how much scanning it has actually done. I received no results, and I would like to think this is because I have cared nicely for my computer and have a good arsenal in place, but I still wander if Bazooka is actually going to catch that much in it's scans. The database of spyware doesn't contain as many items as many other detection utilities. I also REALLY dislike being asked to join mailing lists upon the launch of a program.
