I'm using Ad-Aware SE and that link is still available in the
program.

I bet if you click it though it will tell you there are no updates.

The latest definitions I have are December 27, 2007. I'm not sure
about upgrading to Ad-Aware 2007. It annoys me a little bit that the
program requires the installation of an XP service. The only thing Ad-Aware
has ever found on my PC is tracking cookies.


From: Joan Archer on
That is the last update for the SE version I think although there has been
another for the 2007 version. Support for the SE version ended at the end of
the year.
It usually only finds tracking cookies on mine as well but at least it's
nice to know I can scan with it just in case something does sneak past <g>

Can one turn off the XP service that Ad-Aware 2007 installs?
