685722 2008-07-06 04:46:00 AdAware updates are getting larger and larger; approaching 8 MB each time now! :groan:

Is there a setting or something that will take me back to incremental updates?

685723 2008-07-06 22:45:00 Which version of AdAware are you using? AdAware is not nearly as effective as it used to be. I dumped it late last year, it just didn't achieve anything.

If it's a free one, dump it and use Spybot S&D (*Without Tea Timer or SD Helper, untick those options during install), and/or install an application such as SUPERAntiSpyware or Spyware Terminator, those apps run all the time, along side your AV software.
