Very thorough product with consistent service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not a very intuitive interface for initial users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We used spybot for malware detection on windows system, it has a free version which does the job to some extent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spybot catches about 1 in 5 malwares and is not very efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicities of Spybot are the main draw. With minimal user input I am able to monitor over 150 workstations with plans to expand it further. Updates are seemless, though there have been a few instances where one or two adware breaches have occurred. Most due to user interference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish updates would occur more frequently to the database of known malicious software. That is really my only complaint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use in updates and running the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I did have some issues of latency in my computer during startup, but was able to fix it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For bad infections I always run multiple scans, and spybot is one of my 3 main scanners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Scan time is a little longer than others, but many times it finds things the others don't. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The product has a variety of features for both the basic and advanced users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the features are not easy to get to if you don’t know what your looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Immunization was always a selling point of this software and today is protection against some 250 000 types of malicious software.. There are diferent "moduls" for diferent browsers, in x86 an x64 modes. This is a must use for everone that had a misfortune to had a hijacked browser.

Also, "Rootkit scan" is a necessity today, for any standard anti-malware/anti-virus software. S&D have 2 levels, fast and deep-scan, both doing a great job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Speed of updating is, after all this years, still a problem. With all today optics networks and high-speed internet it's incredible that some updates can take 10+ minutes to load. Also, 1st instalation can be a tricky one. 1st Immunization can be also time - consuming (but it's the best feature of this software). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that its easy to use and also does usually find whats is hiding on the PC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a bit CPU intensive. So you may not want to be running much Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spybot is quicker and easier to get up and running than other spyware cleaners. Its scan is thorough and finds objects others don't. Cleaning what's found is button-click simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Doesn't update definitions automatically Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spybot manages to clean up most if not all malware infections and prevents against future infections when installed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The visual experience could use a little more updating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
