When Adaware first came out, it worked fine with my Win 95. Last week I had to reformat my hard drive, and after downloading adaware I found the file would not open. I started using the 5.8 version, but then one night while *just browsing* around I found an adawre that does work on Win 95, just as well as it did before. It was on a German webpage (had to translate), but at 1.6 mb, it was the right one. I have included the web address for those who may want it.

I was using Adaware 5.83 from oldversions.com, a nice enough version; but wanted to have Version 6, and since the 2.50mb would not open, I started cruising around, looking for something in between, which could be updated as needed. I was just letting others know, if they were interested.


btw Guest, your link doen&#39;t go anywhere.

Fill out the necessary info, such as the website, current version, and the version your seeking, and maybe it will be found. This can greatly improve your chance of getting the app you seek.

Are you the one who requested this in the previous thread, and i replied back with adding the info?
You should have added the info into that thread, no need to start a new thread for every single version difference in a file. It works better for the whole website, if the same titles are posted in a single thread.
Its noted in the Howto request an App to post into existing thread, for the above reasons. If every one file-seeker posts 1 request for each change in version or builds, then this site would be next to impossible to navigate, search or find any useful information.

The link you added, does not even have a download or a product called ad-aware pro. Just a few older file-sharing apps (non p2p).

.... :)

Ad-aware plus & Pro are the paid versions of ad-aware, and are sent to you through a link when you pay for it and register.. i suggest you download the free public version of Ad-aware, as its just as good but is missing some features..

I think the free version is called Ad-Aware SE 1.x. The Pro version, aka 6.x, can only be gotten by buying it or on shareaza ;]. It&#39;s a very popular file, meaning it will actually download. I never even used whatever version you mean.
to download and use the full version without paying is illegal and members should refrain from advising of such practices , that is not what this site is about

Program Name: Ad-Aware v 6
Website: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
Current version: 1.05SE
Desired versions: 6
Description: I believe there is still a free version #6 that was handed out. The versions on the site only go to 5.8 or so... could really really really use v6.

Thanks in advance&#33;

I had the adaware v.6.181 free for personal use on my computer, but, don&#39;t know any link to post for you.

Instead I&#39;ll upload it through:

www.yousendit.com

Link good for 7 days or 25 downloads, whichever comes first. So grab it fast&#33;

Just a word of caution.

AdAware has changed to the "SE" series....Versions 5.x, 6.x & etc are no longer being supported by Lavasoft.

If you wish to continue to recieve updated definitions of new adware, you should download the current version.

As far as I know "AdAware SE Personal Build 1.05" is the current free offering.

I want to buy a program/package that will locate and kill all spyware, adware and pop-ups on my pc, i am using win98. I have seen a lot of programs on the shelf but i would like to know what other people use before i make my final choice.

Thank You :D

Before purchasing a title, check out the many freeware spyware removers in this thread;
http://www.oldversion.com/talk/index.php?a...t=ST&f=2&t=1405 (http://www.oldversion.com/talk/index.php?act=ST&f=2&t=1405)
As far as which is the best,... Try a few of the shareware titles then decide.

One of the moderators at FreedomList assembled a list of free security tools:
http://s88305917.onlinehome.us/InternetSec...tyFreeTools.htm (http://s88305917.onlinehome.us/InternetSecurityFreeTools.htm)

BTW: Beware of spyware disguised as a spyware killer. Some will give you a false positive to entice you to buy the software. Never buy a security tool if you first heard of it in a pop-up or spam.

this comes up so often on many forums, a personal preference of mine is spybot search and destroy which is in the list of spyware removers that LOCUSTFURNACE compiled i run this on all my systems along with adaware both of which are free programs. i settled on these pair after trying many different ones and these giving the best results over many others

I have and run Ad Aware the Professional SE Version with Ad Watch, Spybot, SpywareBlaster and Pest Patrol, but I am not fully anamoured
with the most recent version of Pest Patrol since being taken over by
Computer Associates. The first three you can acquire as freeware, but
after a couple of years I bought the Profression Version so I could help support the effort as well as making donations to the Spybot group.

Ad-aware Standard Edition is THE award winning, free*, multicomponent detection and removal utility that has consistently lead the industry in safety, user satisfaction, support and reliability.

Thanks for the help, my pc is running a lot smoother now and without all the pop-ups. I think they should be stopped for good, if i want to gamble, have my breasts enlarged or watch porn then i will go to those sites if and when i want to not because of a pop-up. I guess thats just my opinion but they are anoying.

Thanks again

I find Panicware&#39;s Pop-up Blocker v2.6 set to aggressive mode very affective at blocking pop-ups. I might be lucky if 1 in 1000 makes it through. As the link on here seems to be dead to the v2.6 I&#39;ve uploaded for you through you.sendit.com.

http://s6.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=C5C46889...8E95A49A63A8736 (http://s6.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=C5C4688987E91E9E38E95A49A63A8736)

Link will last for 7 days or 25 downloads, whichever comes first

Instructions for using this pop-up stop

After installing PopUpStopper26.exe you&#39;ll see a white box
with a red X in it and a blue line on top beside your clock.

Right click on this icon and left click preferences.

Click on Enable aggressive pop-up control.

If you want noise when a pop-up is blocked click:
Play a sound when pop-up is blocked, pick your sound and click open.

Now click Close.

With this set in this way pop-ups will be blocked.
If a window doesn&#39;t open that you would like open
hold down the CTRL key and click the link again.

Current version is SE personal, but oldversion.com is not updated. I need 6.0 to reverse some changes previously made on the system. Thanks

Always a good idea to read the pinned topic for assistance before posting a request which has been asked for previously, if you had, you would have found this thread, and possibly your request would be fulfilled instead of waiting for a reply.
