    "Webroot really messed up with this version."

    by Spyware Exposer on July 20, 2006

    Pros: SpySweeper 4.5 is still the best spyware protection software.

    Cons: Oh my god, this version 5 needs to be recalled. Don't install it or upgrade.

    Summary: SpySweeper version 4.5 is much better. I wouldn't reccommend anyone upgrading to this version 5. I have 632MB of RAM on my pc and it would hardly run with this version 5. I don't see how it could even run on 256MB or less. Better save your install for version 4.5, because you will probably need it. Webroot customer support is the worst that I have ever seen. You have to make a ticket and wait in line forever to get a responce. Webroot even removed the download links for version 4.5.
    This company doesn't know nothing about how to run a bussiness. They have the best product then go and mess it up. If you can't get SpySweeper to work then try PC Tools Spyware Doctor, it is almost as good and has great customer support. Or just keep your version 4.5 until Webroot ends support and updates for it. And I really think the way Webroot is pushing this terrible version 5 is completely outragious.
    It even displays on your SpySweeper news page. "Only new version 5.0 can catch today's most danagious threats" in that case I guess we are completely out of luck.
