Editor's review :
HijackThis is a good anti-spyware software that will find any spyware infections on your computer. This is a powerful anti-spyware application and it should be used with care. It is not recommended for beginner who are new to the world of spyware/adware. It can become a very good friend that can help you to delete all the unwanted spyware on your computer if you really know what you are doing. If no other anti-spyware tools can help you, you may want to try this advanced spyware removal application. My advice is to skip on this advanced tool which should not be used by beginners without any professional help. You can damage your system if you don't know what you are doing. Sure, there are many other free or shareware anti-spyware tools that can help you and again you should use it with caution. Download HijackThis, install it, and see if it helps you, before using it you should search on the Internet howto use HijackThis and see what other experimented users have to say about this software.
Other notes :
There are no technical issues regarding this anti-spyware application. You can install it and run it without damaging your computer. You will definetely destroy your system if you are going to delete a "possible" infection found by this program. Remember that this program is not able to determine what is good or bad. This is why issues in using HijackThis can appear if you didn't use this program before and have no ideea to run correctly this application.
