Oh and the ICSA now has antispyware certification, which SAVCE earned. Note
that McAfee is certified too but you have to buy an additional antispyware
module, pffffft!

Use the corporate edition v10.1.4.4000 :) If you read their list of
threats, they include all malware/spyware that adaware detects.
Since v10.X I have stopped using antispyware of any kind. I verified myself
every so often with a onetime scan of adaware that indeed it is now useless
in wake of SAVCE.

SAVCE is simply the best because it negates the need for antispyware
products. The latest version released (big update last month) was
10.1.4.4000 - you will need to get a new serial code to access this new
version via fileconnect.
Symantec has actually written an AV that includes 100% protection from
Spyware as well? I have yet to see a 100% solution to spyware, nor have I
read of one anywhere. This would be a major breakthrough. Do you have
some links to back this up?
