avast and spyware dr.
« on: January 17, 2010, 04:17:25 PM »
PC tools seems to think that Avast is conflicting with Spyware DR. How can I instruct avast to ignore Spyware Dr.?

I'm going to get a lot of flack for this, but...

PC Tools is bugware!  I don't recommend anything from PC Tools!  PC Tools software is full of bugs!

Spyware Doctor has lots of false positives.

You don't need an antispyware product with avast! as avast! has a real-time on access antispyware module built in to it.
