Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	I talked with my Manager about updating clients using these applications. I did see Rad's Spybot Manager. Rad - any updates? And playing around, I found: Ad-Aware is supposed to support command-line updates, but I could not get them to work and Googling found similar issue with other people.. Spybot Search and Destroy - Works fine. But I am intrigued by Rad's Spybot Manager (above). Spyware Blaster - Have not had a chance to see about command-line version. Also, I know McAfee VirusScan 8.0i has some Ad-Killing ability within. However, we only have this installed on a couple of systems. Thanks for updates and insights.

Actually, the Personal Edition of Ad-Aware SE does not support any command-line switches, even though the help documentation lists them...the Professional Edition does, however. This is a change from the 6.0 version, the free version of which supports command-line switches.

Mart Mart KiX Supporter Registered: 2002-03-27 Posts: 4673 Loc: The Netherlands	We just purchased PestPatrol from CA ( http://www3.ca.com/Solutions/Product.asp?ID=5222 ) After a evaluation period we purchased PestPatrol and love it. Easy to use and solves our Spy/AddWare problems. Internetaccess speed improved big time. No probs with Kent's link here. Interesting stuff this M$ antispyware will take a look tommorow when there is some more time. [off-topic] It's 10:30 pm here and a massive charity show for the 26-12-2004 Tsunami victims is on the tube (with DJ Tiesto) and a radio show all day synchronised over about 6 radiostations. Radio show ended just above 5.000.000 euro's add this to the +/- 26.000.000 we raised during the week and all that money that is still on the way it's like 40.000.000 euro's ). Proud to be dutch! [/off-topic] [edit] Total amount of 112.144.000 euro's has been reached [/edit] Edited by R2D2 (2005-01-07 10:05 AM) _________________________ Mart - Chuck Norris once sold ebay to ebay on ebay.

As for the CA stuff, during our test comparisons they lost on several counts. For the Tsunami money thing - heard that the head of the American Red Cross was complaining that so far the're not really seeing the money, mainly pledges and not much real money yet to use.
