I do approve of all the effort in trying to help people maintaining there PC Spyware free, But your effort should also include verifying the programs aren't Spyware Installers dressed up as Anti-Spyware.

Case in point I have run many antivirus programs and many have not impressed me in the least. I am not very impressed with Symantic in that it uses too many resources. And it has been disabled by many virus software. McCafee has also been disabled many times by viruses in my time. I am sad to say all of the COTS Antivirus Software I have purchased has been disabled by Viruses in one way or another.

Many Times I have had to rebuild computer systems of friends or family in the years. So I do test many Anti-virus software and Anti Spyware software. 

The Malware Byte's Antimalware program was caught trying to install a trojan on my system, not once during it's scan but twice. I do not take kindly to that type of disinformation about programs. So please test the software using more than one box and more than one anti-virus program. My system uses Avast! which I highly recommend above any COTS Antivirus Program.

I will not test any of the other programs that you list do to what the Malware one did, but the Superanti-spyware seems to work and doesn't seem to raise and alerts from my antivirus so it can live.

Thank You.
