Ad-Aware 2007

Version: 7.0.2.6

NO and NEVER.

Pros: WAS a good product when it was the SE Personal version, small, easy to use, fast and non-intrusive.

Cons: I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOO disappointed that Lavasoft has stopped updates on Ad-Aware SE Personal and forced everyone (just like Microsoft does) to update to the lastest bloated, crappy and slow 2007 version. This product went from like 5MB to 20MB+, very high on resources, has processes running behind your back and takes 5 times longer to scan. I am also not very pleased with the interface nor have I noticed this product catches anything but traffic cookies. I honestly have NO idea where all the space taken comes from in this product, and why it takes almost more than 20 minutes just to do a SMART scan when the SE personal only took about 2-3 minutes to get the job done.

I am through with this product, and I am trying to find a BETTER alternative on Download.com to replace this useless product.

WinRAR

Version: 3.71

Love it!

Pros: WinRAR has such an easy interface, and extracts quite an amount of file types. Very small in size, had it for years, hasn't crashed on me once, and it looks pretty nice (no bumpy ugly icons, etc.) I had it installed for a while, and even though it says it's not "free", it pretty much is. If you use it, and this window comes out asking you to enter key, you can just click "close" and continue using it, unless I am missing out on something. I always prefer this out of WinZIp.

Cons: Thankfully, this protect hasn't let me down yet. I'm glad I found no cons in this product! :)

Glary Utilities

Version: 2.4

Well done, but using it for a little, and I love it.

Pros: Glary Utilities, in my opinion is one of the best cleaning software I used. Although it's a bit big (about 16MB) it does everything else paid cleaners do. It has Disk Cleaning, Registry cleaning, shortcut fixer, uninstall manager, and a lot other useful features for protecting your privacy. Glary Utilities is very efficient and FREE. I have spent money for the past year on Ace Utilties and finally gave up when I found this useful product for free that does everything a paid software does. It's very fast, accurate, very easy on your resources, and hasn't crashed on me at all. Highly recommended.

Cons: I didn't see a registry backup .. that's a tool Ace Utilities have incase you made a mistake in your registry cleaner. Although I can't complain since this is free.

Avast Home Edition

Version: 4.8.1169

Wow fascinating!

Pros: And people recommended me to use AVG antivirus? I can't believe this program comes with so many features in such a small, easy to use interface. Not only does it scan for viruses now, but it also includes anti-rootkit protection, antispyware, and even less memory usage! I love this antivirus, it has so many easy to use features that can save you from viruses and allow you to safely browse the web. It is so non-intrusive and good for anyone who wants a working FREE antivirus! Worth more than the free price!

Cons: None so far. I'd love to see a firewall, but I can't complain, this program could take a while to make, and since it is free, I'm satisfied.

Product:

Trend Micro HijackThis

Version: 2.0.2

Good product

Pros: I didn't give it five stars because it's not exactly perfect for everyone but it's good enough for advanced Windows users and for people who understand computers and running processes. I downloaded this product since I'm an ok Windows user trying to find out my problems. I didn't have any spyware, however this program really helps you find out those suspicious and unknown items that are hiding somewhere inside your computer. All you do is check the ones you want to remove and then delete it. Simple, small, easy and hard to use at the same time. On computer tech sites, if you ask for help, people would often ask you to post your Hijack log. I would say this product is favored by many people.

Cons: So like I said, I gave it four stars because it's not exactly perfect but good enough for those who knows computers well. I would recommend this product even if you don't know how to use it, you can always log your contents and ask for help in a computer tech support site.
