webroot spy sweeper. Anyone use it?
A customer of mine brought me a computer that had a virus which I got rid of, and they bought a copy of webroot spysweeper/antivirus prior to bringing the PC to me (I would not have suggested that product).
So whatever, I installed it for them since they already paid for it and installed one of the 3 licenses on another machine.
One thing I noticed when doing a scan (or sweep as they call it). This program doesn't ever seem to tell you what the hell it actually found. Sure, it shows you a nice pretty list with buzz words like "trojan" and "tracking cookie" but even trying to drill down on something as far as you can, it NEVER tells you what file it actually found and considers malicious. If I am wrong PLEASE someone tell me where to find this info, otherwise I find it incredibly shady for a security program to say "Hey I found all these bad things on your computer, but thats as much as I will tell you" It seems to me that makes it very easy for the program to turn up whatever it wants to ensure you keep buying it...
