    I use the non-beta version, and find it sometimes catching things that MWB and SAS don't catch.

    I also have found this true. Ancient or not, it can be a useful tool.

    Indeed, and seeing as how most modern computers are manufactured with huge HDD (my laptop has 300GB, desktop has 700GB) a mere ~100mb install is nothing and makes Spybot a worthwhile program to have and use.

    Spybot-S&D Beta
    Hi Airbot;

    Have you tried this Beta 2.0?

    If yes, what you think. Is it worth it?

    Thanks

    I haven't tried it, no. I used Spybot years ago before Win 7. Was too outdated for me.

    Just posted this to make aware that the program was actually still being worked on, and see if anyone wanted to try it for themselves.

    Thanks. I'll give it a shot and post about it.

    Reading some of the previous posts here all I can say is,,, Spybot, while not perfect (cause none of them are) is still quite good and way better than Ad-Aware garbage (talk about bloatware).
    I really hope it doesn't turn into a Bloated piece of garbage like Ad-Aware. I really don't think it will.
    Infact, Spybot is a member of Portable Apps, hopefully he make 2.0 the same.

    It is beta, so,if you ignored this info (which is common for any and all things called BETA)

    Our team has tested this complete new version thoroughly but there will be some bugs. Remember it is a beta and as such not a replacement for the stable version 1.6.2.
    That's your fault.
