I recently purchased Spyware Detector and the program is weird. It has functionality problems. I read where it gives false positives. Has anyone else used this software and if so what is your take on it? Thank you in advance.

Hi Larkina. Welcome to the 2-Spyware.com forums!

Max Secure Spyware Detector is a corrupt anti-spyware program that uses false positives. This product is on the 2-Spyware.com Corrupt Anti-Spyware list. Programs on this list should not be purchased and used. I suggest uninstalling Max Secure Spyware Detector as soon as possible. You should be able to get a refund.

If you need a really powerful and legitimate spyware remover, take a look on the latest Anti-Spyware Comparison. I recommend purchasing Spyware Doctor or Spy Sweeper, the most effective anti-spyware programs available. If you need a free product, download the free version of SUPERAntiSpyware.

This product corrupted system tray display on XP SP2 Pro. Removing the product brought the system back.

If you want a refund after this sort of experience expect to have send frantic and angry emails to the support desk.

I tried for 3 days.  Don't buy it; there are other products around....
