Ad-aware is a free multi-spyware removal utility, that scans your memory, registry and hard drives for known spyware components and lets you remove them safely. Ad-aware runs under Windows 95/98/ME/NT4.0/2000/XP. =============================================================== Warning! "bps Spyware Remover" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you have purchased or used BulletProofsofts* (Ayman Elbanhawy) “Spy Cleaner™” or “BPS Spyware/Adware Remover™”, you have been deceived! These programs have been cobbled together from stolen content, coding and design from our software and that of SBSD. Someone has even gone so far as to alter the user reviews of our C|Net downloads page by making it look as though our application were negatively received (overwhelmingly we might add, when prior to this attack we had a 91% positive rating over 12million+ downloads which they altered to look as though it were 31%) while giving BPSs software a 100% positive rating (which is absolutely impossible). If for no other reason, this is about as suspicious a coincidence as you can get. To get the truth about this software, you can view REAL opinions here: h++p://download.com.com/3302-2144-10183773.html?ob=0&pn=1&fb=2 And if this exploit is as troublesome to you as it is to us, please let C|Net know how you feel: h++p://www.cnet.com/cnetsupport/contact/1,10161,0-3945,00.html?tag=dir The host for his downloads has a forum. We suggest users go there and ask why they offer pirated software for download: h++p://www.topdownloads.net/cgi-bin/ikonboard/ikonboard.cgi Now to show you what Ayman Elbanhawy has done: If you look at the interface, very little has changed from our original announcement last June. Except for some additional buttons, it still uses the Ad-aware 5X UI. He is also still using the domain adaware info to imply a relationship to our software. There is no relationship other than the fact this person is attempting to steal our good name and reputation. Longtime users of our software will notice many lingering similarities (despite an attempt to change this after our last confrontation) including the use of an “Ignore list” and how the various modules are named with a *-watch. You will also notice the way the logfile looks (familiar?): h++p://www.bulletproofsoft.com/SpywareHlp/Help/index.html#6.2 In his rush to put his “online help” together, he didnt pay much attention to the actual content as he shows a false positive for the “Liveshows” dialer. Take a look and please dont use this if you have Microsoft office as you might end up removing your “FindFast” application. You will also notice that he uses the exact text supplied with our 5X version help manual for the creation of language files (he actually USES the ones we supplied that were made by ourselves and our users): QUOTE 5.7.1 Adding your own language modules: Back to Top --> Step 1) Copy the "English.ini" file located in the installation folder/Lang, and name it with the name of the language you are making. Example: Japanese.ini. Note: Don't change the file extension, keep it as ".INI". Step 2) Make an icon 16x16 pixels with the flag for your country language pack, and save it in bitmap format. Example: Japanese.bmp Note: It must have the same name as the language.ini file, and have the extension ".BMP" Step 3) Edit the file with notepad or any text editor. Example: ;Backup Window <--- This line is a comment since it starts with the ";" 1400=Restore 1401=Clean 1402=Cancel The strings will be changed to your language Example to change them to French: ; Fenêtre auxiliaire 1400=restaurez 1401=propre 1402=annulez While he changed this slightly to alter the string numbers (from 1000 to start with 1400) and added some content to reflect the “features” he added, there is no real difference between our language packs and the ones he offers. As we are not the only software maker affected, you may wish to investigate these domains for examples of other pirated/plagiarized software bulletproofsoft.com, topdownloads.com, and rizal.com. We are sure that you will be amazed at the audacity of those behind this and how far they are willing to go to try and get your money. Team Lavasoft *)Please note that Bulletproofsoft is NOT affiliated with Bulletproof Software, the makers of BulletProof-FTP."Bulletproofsoft" too is selling several FTP clients, and this is yet another example of their deceptive marketing practices.
