When I upgraded my computer went downhill fast. My browsers started becoming sluggish and going to not responding. Other programs would go unresponsive as well causing my system to hang numerous times. My sleep mode would constantly be interrupted due to slow responses of servicing hardware. I could not update my browsers or other software when needed without getting download errors and when it did download and I had to restart my computer it would not shutdown properly. I have had to use the power button numerous times just to shut down my system and restart. When Spyware Doctor would update automatically and the notification message would appear my product had been updated the message would not go away. When I clicked on the message it would hang up my system. I tried updating manually but...

Maupin "drop-dead-books" (zapperville) - See all my reviews       This review is from: Pc Tools Spyware Doctor/Antivirus 2011 - 1 User/3 Pc [Old Version] (CD-ROM) I have used this software for many years. I signed up and noticed the next year there was a charge on my credit card. Thing is, it was to 39.99, the full blown price. I let it go but unsubscribed to automatic billing. When time came to resub, I found a deal and it would not install because my old subscription had the old number attached. After waiting and hour on the phone, the guy told me to install and uninstall it two times, and "Uncheck" the part that said "do you want to keep your old subscription number. Ten it worked, but alas, the next day neither my laptop nor my desktop worked. I tweaked for hours finally uninstalling Spyware Doctor and the laptop was fine. I did the same to the desktop, which is brand new..less than a month. I wrote to Spyware doctor and they told me to uninstall all Mcaffee that came with the computer? CAN YOU IMAGINE?? I'm asking for a refund Fat chance Oh by the way My free...

Gill - See all my reviews    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Pc Tools Spyware Doctor/Antivirus 2011 - 1 User/3 Pc [Old Version] (CD-ROM) Let me just say that what appears to be a bargain - $13 instead of the retail $39.99 - is not always so. I installed this on 3 of my home computers - two running Windows 7 64-bit and the other 32-bit. Install, initial scans and updates are quick and painless and then, as you'd expect, it sits in the background protecting you against all the evil-doers out there. But then it starts doing a bit of evil of it's own.. Initial symptoms were "hangs" whilst using Internet Explorer 8, sometimes OK after a few seconds and then a bit longer - resulting in "Not Responding" and then a total system freeze for a minute or longer (CTRL/ALT/DEL did nothing - Task Manager would take a minute or longer to appear). Now a minute is a long time in modern PC terms but it seems like forever when you have just built a super-duper computer with top-of-the line CPU, SSD and shedloads of RAM. I tried Firefox and Chrome but the same problems occurred (and worse - my first ever...
