On the note of spyware utilities, anyone else notice Spybot hasn't had any updated definitions to download in a long time? Did they release a version higher then 1.2? If so, last I checked their website 1.2 was still the latest.

oh, and x6!

You need to get your eyes checked dude because 1.3 has been out for a while now.

It would be nice if both Ad-Aware and Spybot would automatically download the newest versions, similar to how they download the newest definitions. I didn't know that there had been an update for either until I read both of the posts here. Either that, or give some type of notification in the program itself that a new version is available. That's the only real complaint I have with either program.

Hm, looks like 1.3 broke 1.2's update feature. Sux.

mmmk, I forgot to mention the last time I checked was almost 3 months ago and this thread just happend to remind me. Which is the reason I asked here before checking it out.

I was working 60hrs a week with no days off and this week has been the most time I've spent on my computer in the last 3 months since my services were no longer needed.

Despite the smartassedness, thx for the link MD

Checksum error?

Use another mirror.

edit:

New AAW version launches alot faster, and has a smaller memory footprint. Good stuff! Its finally skinnable too!

If any of you guys like to run Adaware as a scheduled task while you're asleep, you'll be dissappointed to hear they no longer support command line options for the free version. However, I took some dude's VB script and modified it to run Adaware automatically while you're afk:

'Please leave this in: - Created By Russell Dyas 2004 (Use at own risk)
' modified by Steve Brueckner 2004 to add web update functionality (still use at own risk)
'
'The sleep lines may need altering if your system is slow. Basicly the number is amount of seconds
'with 000 added on end (ms -> sec) so first one is 6 secs second one 1 sec.
'
'if using in task scheduler will need to remove msgbox lines can leave last one in
'
'use at own risk.
'
'Not supported by lavasoft: unoffcial

'msgbox "Please Do Not Touch The Computer After You Have clicked OK Until You Get A Message Saying You Can"

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'WshShell.Run ("Ad-Aware.exe")
WshShell.Run ("C:\PROGRA~1\Lavasoft\AD-AWA~1\Ad-Aware.exe")

WScript.Sleep 6000 'wait 6 seconds for ad-aware to start up
