ROFL.

Dont take this idiots advice, this is a rogue anti spyware product that 
invents infections to goad people like this person to buy the software.

Try superantispyware, or avg free antispyware, both of those are pretty 
good.

You are a nasty piece of work.

I am not an idiot and as I said it works.

What makes you an expert and what right do you have to go around being 
unpleasant.

for your info I had a computer pop up  infection called zango ( I think that 
is how it is spelt) and this was the only program that stopped it. Mcafee 
refused to touch it , Ad-aware se would not see it and windows defender 
could not see it either.

I now don't have any problems with popups or any other infections  both 
Mcafee and maxsecure do live monitoring and scheduled scanning in a similar 
way to Defender but not all infections are detected by the programs at the 
same time. Sometimes  only one of them see it sometimes all of them see it. 
the Maxsecure catches more than the others.

My experience. Take it or leave it but don't show your lack of manners by 
being nasty for no good reason.

First rule of spyware "killers" - check the list...

FWIW SuperAntiSpyware is on the legit list, and I already know AVG is.

Well, i was a bit mean, but dont advise people to use programmes that will 
compromise their security


> I am not an idiot and as I said it works.

No, it doesnt, it is a scam piece of software that invents false positives 
to goad people to purchase.

I do it for a living all day every day, but you are right, i shouldnt be 
unpleasant, apologies.

Add and remove usually gets rid of zango....

> Mcafee refused to touch it

hardly surprising, as its an anti virus, and has poor anti spyware support.

Ok, i will be slow for you, so you understand. Max secure is a scam piece of 
software. You are not alone in being fooled, so dont feel bad, but thats it.
