I like Spybot Search and Destroy more than adaware (including the fact that
Spybot says Adaware stole their database).  It cought more registry edits
than adaware did, and more IE changes.

I have been tasked with identifying suitable anti-trojan-ware for
workstations.  Ive been looking at AdAware.  Its free and seems to do the
job.  Im wondering what is the catch.?

Has anyone done a review of antitrojan sofrware?  Id like to know if there
is a suitable/cheap/supported product that we can use to compliment sophos
that will protect against malicious code, trojans, session hijacking and
other web nasties.


Thanks

Jack
