Anyone have any experiences with Spy Sweeper, trust it or what have you? I have some cumputers in the shop, have some time on my hands and after running a full hdd scan with Adaware 1.81, Personal. defs latest. (199 items found, mostly cookies) ran a trial of Spy Sweeper. 703 items later it was done scanning! W/o removing, ran a spybot S&D scan, found 1 item.

Laptop been having popups keep coming back, redirections etc. Run the same set of tools, Adaware, Spybot, Hijackthis. Then throw Spy Sweeper at it, 1154 items later the system is clean.

Is Spy Sweeper fluffing the results to look good or is my fav spyware remover that far behind the times and needing to be replaced!?
