Spy Sweeper Review - removing spyware
United States of America (Press Release) November 16, 2007 -- Great program... Posted by : alnjk01 Date : 11/5/2005 20:41:00
This is a very well thought out program. It has an excellent interface combined with ease of use. On detections it is probably one of if not the best. It does take system resources however that is the trade-off for a very well executed application in detections and preventions. As far as "price/value" category, spy sweeper is a subscription based software. Therefore this can be a debatable issue?
King of the castle... Posted by : mmh123 Date : 7/11/2005 17:03:00
Absolutely brilliant. The features it has to offer are stunning and so easy to use and customize. Not only is it the best Spyware detector on the market but Webroot offer a free upgrade of any of their products within the first year of purchase when applicable. Their technical support is also of the highest caliber.
Spy sweeper the real ferrari duster.... Posted by : Alfredo Date : 5/11/2005 16:49:00
Though I have tested many a Spy/Adware program, Spy Sweeper has been outdoing many better Sharewares and is the top one on my list. A very famous Shareware which is on the market could not remove the following Add/Spyware, but Spy Sweeper on it's first round bull-dozed a mountain of them and I am very satisfied and will add same to my registered Sharewares. This and 242 more were removed even while using M....Spyware.
Spy sweeper: mercedes benz 600 of antispyware... Posted by: Nikita Date : 2/20/2005 09:25:00
Many of us wouldn't mind to ride a luxury Mercedes Benz 600 but not all of us can afford it. The same I can say about Webroot Spy Sweeper: it's a very mighty app but it takes too much time to scan and in addition to that while scanning it takes so much of your computer resources that only those with very powerful computers can do anything else during the scanning process.
"two" many false positives... Posted by: texasfirewheel Date : 2/19/2005 07:07:00
I like Spy Sweeper but it has found 2 trojans that werent really there. The first time it happened I contacted my anti-spyware provider, who advised me that Spy Sweeper is known to report "false positives". I contacted Spy Sweeper and got very little help; they claimed to know nothing about false positives. I do all my banking and bill-paying online so I didnt sleep for two days -- until I read enough reports, on the internet, of false positives from other Spy Sweeper users to believe that my report was false too. I just ran another Spy Sweeper sweep and got another false positive for "Trojan Backdoor Krydor". Thru google, I found that this is another false positive that Spy Sweeper is known to report. All in all, I like Spy Sweeper very much. I can live with the false positives but I wish I'd known about them the first time.
Nice software... Posted by :bob9090 Date : 2/14/2005 23:57:00
I like the Interface, big enough to see for me and easy to use. Seems to do a great job of fighting SpyWare here. Updates to definitions are frequent and they should be since we are paying for it.
One of the best ...... Posted by :TeXMeX Date : 2/14/2005 21:19:00
This program caught things that Microsoft Antispyware, Yahoo Antispyware, and Ad-Aware all missed. The items included: Adware: ShopAtHomeSelect, Adware: Morpheus Adware, Trojan Horse: Trojan-Backdoor-Kyrdor, System Monitor: Visual Log. The interface is very neat and user-friendly, lots of checkpoints or 'shields' that monitor and prevent adware/spyware installation and self-run capabilities. Very frequent and comprehensive updates. What more can I say ? I would not normally spend over $10 for any comparable program, but I think this one is definitely worth the $30 price tag. If you don't believe me, try the free trial.
Effective... Posted by :Andrew Date : 1/25/2005 17:47:00
Doesn't find and protect against all adware and and spyware threats, however gets rid of the nastiest of threats and sometimes leaves the minor ones.
Sweepee swell... Posted by : RidleyDave Date : 12/26/2004 23:01:00
Works very good,but they must get counterspy in snapper because it's radically different and makes an excellant combo.
Getting better all the time ...... Posted by :TideWalker Date : 12/1/2004 02:30:00
I've had this program for quite awhile now and I'm a registered user. Spysweeper keeps up to date with current threats and provides fresh definitions often. I've seen spysweeper catch changes being made on my system that other programs did not catch. I also like the news feature, where one can see information on new threats and etc. Everything is so easy with SW. The guards / shields are a nice feature and simple to use and control. Just tic or untic for off or on. Updates are just as easy. Click check for updates and sw will call home and if there is new definitions available, it will ask if you want to download them. I'm always ready and dialed up. I always say yes and grab the latest. Over all, I like this program and it's ease of use. The interface is a breeze and anyone can master it in no time. Oh and as a registered user, I've received program upgrades and tech-support is really good. These folks are doing a great job!

Microsoft Office Accounting 2008 Speaks Spanish
United States of America (Press Release) November 15, 2007 -- The latest version of Microsoft's entry-level accounting program for small businesses released on Thursday can handle accounts in Spanish and English, and integrates with more online banking services than the previous version.
Office Accounting 2008 is a basic set of accounting tools that lets users do general tasks such as managing budgets. It also has special features for people who perform lots of transactions on eBay and handle payments through PayPal, the auction site's online money transfer service.
Microsoft's Office Accounting 2008 has also been released in the U.K. following a limited beta trial begun early this year. The U.K. version, which retails for #149.99 (US$311) is customized for U.K. accounting rules.
Microsoft said it has simplified how a user would set up a new company and customize the accounting functions according to industry. Other improvements include budget tracking, the ability to generate a new purchase order after a sales order, better bulk e-mail invoicing and a resource center for questions about the software and accounting.
Office Accounting can now also import financial data from other business applications in formats such as comma-separated values (CSV) files, used by Microsoft's Excel spreadsheet program.
The Spanish language edition was added since there are more than 2 million Hispanic businesses in the U.S., which often need to switch between Spanish and English with their accounts, Microsoft said.
Microsoft's Office Accounting 2008 software comes in two editions. Office Accounting Professional is designed for up to 25 users and costs $199.95. An upgrade for those who already have Office Accounting 2007, the previous version, costs $149.95. The Express version has fewer features but is free. It's aimed at home businesses run by one person, and is missing tools for sales orders and purchase orders, forecasting, inventory tracking, and handling multiple currencies..
