No, not in those links. I should have told so, sorry. I read it at
CNet, but cannot find the link now because I'm on other computer.
Googled already but cannot find it.

I used it for some years too, once I had to format and install XP and
didn't install Spybot, so I cannot tell from my experience if it's
difficult to uninstall or not.

What I can tell is that it's awfully slow. That was the main reason
why I didn't install it again. Besides, I didn't know that issue with
Kaspersky, and been using K.I.S. so far but hadn't installed Spybot.
Came to learn it while reading those links.

During the time I had it in my computer, it didn't give me any
problems, but it never found anything to report. I came to think it
was useless, and too slow for an Athlon 64 and 1Gb ram ... now I
started to build a new one with an i7 and 4Gb ram, so as to be able to
run Autodesk Autocad Architecture, since my daughter decided to study
Architecture. Maybe in that machine it won't be slow, but I still
doubt if it's useful or useless. Therefore my 2nd link.

Fernando.
