  1. Then let me suggest a feature or something to add into the definitions. You can have a list domains that shouldn't be blocked in a HOSTS file and if it is then Arovax AntiSpyware will report it. Same thing with the bad websites. If it's already blocked in your HOSTS file and you know it's bad then it shouldn't be reported.
  2. Not sure what you mean about the HOSTS file part but I'll try to explain it better. I think what your trying to say is that my HOSTS file has entries like: badsite.com 127.0.0.1 badsite2.com 127.0.0.1 Well it doesn't. It has them like: 127.0.0.1 badsite.com 127.0.0.1 badsite2.com The way Arovax AntiSpyware reports them is incorrect. Plus it's a legit entry. Easy Anon Mail entries (also legit): [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions]
  3. Well I just tested it again on my normal machine and although I like Arovax AntiSpyware it does a have couple of false positives that need pointed out. In this image you'll notice it detected Easy Anon Mail which are legit lines that I set with Spybot. Now I know sometimes malware sets these entries but maybe a feature should be added to detect that the user has set these entries with Spybot. Now you'll see it also reports a Hosts hijacker when they are legit lines too. They all redirect to 127.0.0.1 so I don't visit those sites to get infected. Edit: I also sent you the install link for 180 Search Assistant.
  4. Ok since no one else has commented on the Scanner and Remover I will. I tried it out on a test machine with 180 Search Assistant on it. I started out by infecting myself with 180 Search Assistant on a website. I then ran the Smart Scan in Arovax AntiSpyware. I have to say it has the fastest scanner I've ever seen an Anti-Spyware app have. In my first scan it detected all of the main 180 Search Assistant files and folders. I had it remove them all and it asked me if I wanted to reboot because 2 folders couldn't be removed. I chose no and ran the Smart Scan again. It reported the 2 folders again and I had it remove them and it removed them the second time. There was 1 folder and 1 file that I could find that Arovax AntiSpyware didn't detect and remove. Overall I was really impressed by it. At the rate that Arovax AntiSpyware is going I could see it among the top 5 anti-spyware removers some time soon. Edit: If you want the install link to get the other files and add them to your definitions then PM me and I'll send you the link.
