Question aboutNoAdware program
I recently had to reinstall Windows on my computer and I was led to the NoAdware program when I tried to install Zone Alarm. Is this a spyware program?
No Events found!

Im not sure as to wether NoAdware is a spyware program. I also run zonealarm and had no reccomendatoins like that.
if you are looking for a decent anti adware program i recommend Ad-Aware available from http://www.lavasoft.nu/
hope this helps

Thank you for the advice. As soon as I read the messages on this post, I removed the software.
Sorry about the double post.
