I believe it has full functionality except it is a manual scan started by the user. Where as the full version has an autoprotect feature which pro-actively scans and removes trojans automatically.

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.
