Opinions on XP-Antispy

chaslang · May 7, 2004

I noticed that XP-Antispy 3.81 is available. Anyone have first hand experience using this program? Opinions? Good and bad?

Yeah I've used it before, this updates got a couple new options. Its quite useful because it lets me do some of the things I do on every new install in about 10-20 seconds, rather than half an hour. Like disabling automatic updates, zip functionality, all the Media Player crap, internet time... etc.

The descriptions each item comes with is good too, so you shouldnt disable anything you didnt mean to.

Hi chaslang
For most people i would say it was a excellent piece of software and i would whole heartedly recommend it as it is very simple to understand. Even goldfish likes it

Can it be run if you are running AVG too?

Thanks x, I never tried it since installing XP Pro. I'll give it a whirl.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the comments! I appreciate it. Sounds like a good program to have around!

Oh Oh!

Well I tried it and clicked on recommended settings. Now I can't access the regular or "More" Smilies on my forum replies. Also, when I go to forum jump, and click on a different forum, it doesn't go to that forum automaticlly. I have to press "Go". Anyone have any idea what it changed and if I can change it back?

Thanks MA, all set now. I don't know what I'd do without MajorGeeks' to help me out of the messes I get into.
