Rogue Anti-Spyware -
programs and websites that hurt instead of helpI found this site to extremely helpful to me
as a software reviewer. When I run into a new freeware program that
promises to help me keep my system clean. I go to this site to make
sure I'm not making a big goof. I wish I had done this when I tried out a
program called MalWhere. It took me a couple hours of cleanup after I
installed that one.
