Be wary of "noadware"

I would ignore the advice to download this questionable program, as frequently recommended by a recent poster.

It is not a "free" adware or spyware removal program, but is a come-on to purchase.

Its value has been seriously questioned by this reputable site: http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm#naw_note

I totally support Joe....this program is pure JUNK.

Wanna waste some money, buy it..

Actually...

From Spyware Warrior:
"Over the past few months, NoAdware has taken aggressive steps to reign in its affiliates (who were primarily responsible for the unsavory advertising) and released a new version of NoAdware (version 3.0) that addresses our concerns with false positves. Given these changes we can no longer regard NoAdware as "rogue/suspect" anti-spyware."

Lavasoft (Ad-aware) took it out of their database in a recent update:
SE1R120 24.08.2006

"Please note that we have removed NoAdware from the definitions file as the mandatory probation period is over."

That is not to say NoAdware is the best thing since sliced bread. IMO why pay for something when a combination of free software like Ad-aware and Spybot does a better job in the first place?

...........and we all agree with the fact that there are free porgams like you pointed out that are more effective.

It has done an excellent job for me and my clients. But not one of them has bought it I teach them how to fix them manually.
