Giant Antispyware

December 23, 2004

Now that Giant Antispyware have been bought out by Microsoft, they have taken their downloads off their website. Does anyone know if you can still download the program from anywhere. Many sites merely linked to the Giant website - where the file has now been removed.

If you'd bothered reading what I wrote, then you would have realised that merely sticking "mirrors" into Google doesn't work. All these download websites have no mirrors or only mirror to the now no existent file on the Giant Website.

Yea, I read the article about Giant Antispyware and I said to myself they did better than Spybot and Ad-Aware? Must download, went to their website and found out, I couldn't.

I wonder if MS will intergrate it with Windows XP or sell as a seperate Plus! Edition?

Hopefully, it will be soon though...

Hi, no you can purchase it for 19 dollars as opposed to Giants 39. It is fully functional during the trial, so in other words, the product will remove the spyware now.

Yep,you are right, the link does work. Do you know if they are still providing updates at this time for the def files? I would imagine that they would have to still provide product support while they switch over what ever is required.

my defs are dated 12/21/2004

You are seeing this page because your browser made a request for a file but hasn't provided all the necessary information.

The piece of information missing is called a "referrer". The "referrer" should be sent by browsers when making a request to a webserver and contains the (address) URL of the page you were browsing when you clicked on the link that started the current request.

Either your browser did not send the referrer, or you are using a firewall software that blocks sending it.

For more information please see this page.

There is one more possibility: your browser sent the referrer, but it is incorrect. This happens when you reached this file from a page that was not hosted on our server. You need to start the downoad of the file from a page on our site not an external page.

To go to the correct download page for this file, click here

You will be redirected to our main page in 30 seconds. If that does not happen, please click here.

I get this. So it doesn't work for me.

Counterspy defs where updates this morning, but they use a different system. Makes it difficult to compare them. :blink: This mornings updates take it to version 44. Thanks for the information.
