Re: Anyone get Spy Sweeper to run with Vista?

When I contacted Webroot about this, they replied that it was not recommended
to run Spysweeper on Vista at this time as it was not being tested on Vista
by them yet. I am sure that they will address this in the future. I have
Spysweeper on my other two computers and like it very much. A-squared works
on Vista, and so does the Ewido component of AVG 7.5 Internet Security
program. I use Ewido and A-Squared on my other 2 computers as well. They are
very good programs.
