thanks, but...

i got my license number in the email, typed it in, and it didn't work...

apparantly the number they sent me is invalid :D

[edit:] the serial number is only meant to work for subscribers of this pc user magazine thingy and is meant only to work with the exact version included on the cd that came with the magazine.

thanks, but this is useless unless you get that magazine with that cd

Did you download from the link on the promotional page? Try it from there. Worked fine for me. ;)

ANyone can download it, it's just getting it to clean that takes the registration code.

It would make sense that one of the very few pieces of software I buy would offer it free a couple weeks later.

I'm sorry, but free licence or not, any program that calls it a download and then says "please buy me to remove what I found" needs to me taken out back and shot.

I think it is a good tactic. It is showing you how much more they find than the 'free' competitors product. I will swear by Spyware Doctor finding way more than any of the popular free 3 antispyware apps (Spybot, Adaware, MS Antispyware). It worked for me and now I use it on ever machine I work on. Their license is very flexible and can be used on multiple machines. I just usually uninstall it on customer's machine's after cleaning them with it.

what it does, makes you wanna tell them to "lick my hairy white nut sack"

it makes me think of all the stupid programs that are being advertised in popup ads, the user then clicks on it and downloads and installs the application to do what the ad promised it would do. Only to have it say ok we found problems but you have to buy me first to fix them.

I think its a cheap way to make a user to buy your program. instead of showing the user how you just fixed there computer, and making them apriate it anough to buy it, but in these cases it forces the user.

      The only reason I want to know where you from is because if you are not from the U.K, then why should you care what we in the U.K do or don't do? Racist I am not, I am fed up with the amount coming over here and feel they can come over here and think we need to support them. Do you know how much it costs this country to support these people coming over here? Even when we give them a place to live it is not good enough. We had a barge that was being used to house immigrants, oh but that was not good enough. A mate said to me at the time, when he was homeless, he would have been happy to live on the barge, instead of ending up sleeping on a bench on the beach. I am not scared to say what my family heritage is, unlike you who is scared to say where they are from or where they live. Father side U.S, mother side Wales, still have family living in the U.S. A mate who sadly died a few years ago, had a load of people from different races recording in his studio, I got on with all of them. Skin colour don't bother me, where they are from don't bother me. Religion don't bother me as long as they don't push it onto me and it is not crazy stuff. I am not religious. But if you are not living in the U.K, then why should you care if we are in the E.U or not? This the problem, too many people poking their noses into where it don't belong. But you believe what you believe, if you think I am racist, then be it, I really do not care. Just grow a pair

      If he hasn't been able to figure that out, then why is he obsessed with tariffs? Because that's one of the most prominent tools to level the playing field when you have high cost of labor.
    • Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft released the newest preview update (C-release) under KB5095093. Alongside those, Microsoft also released new dynamic updates. For those who may not know, dynamic updates bring improvements to the Windows Recovery process in the form of Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) updates, which are also called Safe OS updates. The dynamic updates also affect the Setup file binaries in the form of Setup updates. These Dynamic Update packages are meant to be applied to existing Windows images prior to their deployment. Dynamic Updates also help preserve Language Pack (LP) and Features on Demand (FODs) content during the upgrade process. VBScript, for example, is currently an FOD on Windows 11 24H2. This time both recovery and setup updates were released for Windows 11. The company writes: "KB5095186: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, version 26H1: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.28000.2335. KB5102558: Setup Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to Windows setup binaries or any files that setup uses for feature updates in Windows 11, version 24H2 and Windows 11, version 25H2. KB5095615: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.26100.8737." Microsoft notes that both the Recovery and Setup updates will be downloaded and installed automatically via the Windows Update channel.
