How many people use it? Is it a well known app? Search for some reviews and tell me what you find.

I have had a hard time finding any credible information about the app in question and wonder if the evaluation by x3lumin8x (while presented poorly ) and the experience of bitbull101 lend credibility to the idea that another product might be a better choice.

I wouldn't have said anything if I didn't do any research first.

Adaware and Advanced Windows Care V2 are 2 of the top rated adaware programs and very well known. I run them both and have no problems.

maxpcsecure: Is not a well known ad aware program that I can see (really I could find almost nothing on it ), and I wouldn't bother with it. My suggestion is to uninstall it and install one or both of the above mentioned programs..Their request for you allow them to access/manipulate your PC from their side makes me worry about your Data's safety.

I never install anything that don't have a credible site and documentation, (it makes me wonder it's validity).

While it is hosted by ZDnet. The "Overview" is written by the Poster/developer of the software, not a credible source and should not be taken at face value. "the worlds best Pc protection software" ...LOL they all claim to be the best..

Read the users comments and reviews to get the true idea of the program's abilities and worth.


Try Cnet.com for a better way to find downloads with a rating system and customer reviews..( notice adaware 2007 is in the top 5 most popular spyware programs.. its there for a reason)
