Has and/or is anyone using this product. Did some browsing and it seems there is some competition between Malwarebytes and Spy Hunter. Both sides have strong followers. Only ask since I've never (or don't remember) anything this product, but someone recommended it to me, Mindblower!

Hi Mindblower,

1. Spyhunter 4 will set you back about $40 for a six month subscription. That seems quite pricey to me.
2. If you don't pay, it won't fix anything it may find
3. I read it isn't updated very often. Not a good sign for this type of program

Based on those points alone, I'm sticking with MBAM,
Richard

Thank you Richard. Maybe that's why I don't remember hearing about this program (no need to use the name). Seems some tech recommended this over Malwarebytes and it cost them over 90 bucks for a one year service. I pity those who can be swayed
by someone simply cause they have some certification (work in the industry), Mindblower!
