I have the plus version and this new version is great.

It seems to be finding a lot more spyware than the old version and there have been updates on a regular basis............

There are a lot more features in this version also.

Thanks! Will RefUpdate 2.0 work with this new version?

Nevermind. It looks like RefUpdater is intergrated into the application itself now..

I'm not all that impressed with Ad-Aware 6
I ran it.. it foudn a decent amount of junk, so i deleted it. Then i used spybot - search and destroy, immmediately after, before using any more internet, and it found a ton of stuff ad-aware left behind. Theres even an article at cnet comparing the two, and concluded that spybot was better... but its still a decent program nonetheless.
