So good that you uninstalled your Antivirus and Spybot +Ad-Aware (??!!), you must be kidding. Prevx1 is suppose to be used as a SUPPLEMENTARY SOFTWARE, NOT A STANDALONE!! Read the manual before use.
@rayfoo
I believe from other's post, (I am late, LOL), it is only free until the first cleanup, then, it RTM for free, no further.

If Spyware Doctor and Spysweeper is the only best around, Spybot and Ad-Aware would have long extinct. No offence.
As from some reading up, Prevx1 is only a supplementary software (I hate repeating). It supposedly has Advance Heuristics to prevent new or unknown malware (Virus, Spyware ...) from wreaking havoc. If you would kindly read AV-Comparatives Report (there is one on HIPS, Virtualization and ...), Cyberhawk does a better job that Prevx1. For a better option, "Safe n Sec" would be excellent. No doubt, the report is only written based on a few malware, and the testing is not exactly thorough. But then again, it is adequate as a guideline. Read before Usage. Cheers!
Just giving you my test results. Spybot and Ad-Aware do a decent job, but not the best job. Which is why I purchased both Spy Sweeper and Spyware Doctor. You can run 40 free anti spyware programs, no use if they don't get rid of em all.
Spyware use to be just annoying, but now they're getting dangerous. So prepare yourself. Free anti spyware just don't do the best job. That's a fact.
Why do you think the paid softwares are still around? If no one paid for em, they'd be long extinct too right? No offense.
