Giant Antispyware


Question

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.

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...

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.

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.

    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.
