For those that did not win, please do not be despair. Remember yesterday I said that I will be posting about getting commercial software for free on this whole week? Today I will share with you on how to get full retail version of Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus for free!


If you go to Spyware Doctor website, you can find that it has 3 versions of Spyware Doctor. The paid, trial and starter version. Obviously the paid version has all the features and the trial version offers time unlimited real-time protection (free spyware blocking), but does not remove threats detected during on-demand scans, updates may also differ to those supplied to registered users. Weirdly the Starter edition listed there is actually Spyware Doctor WITHOUT antivirus. It is offered for free as part of Google Pack.

After a little digging, I found 2 links that is offering Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus starter edition. First link is a promotional hidden link from PC Tools website and the second link is from vnunet. Out of curiosity, I tested all 4 versions (trial, starter edition from pctools, starter edition from vnunet and paid version) to see what are the differences because I want you to use the best and most updated Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus.

1. Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus from PC Tools hidden promotional link
- Starter Edition
- After installation, product version shows 5.0.5.259
- Intelli-Signatures detects 199,382 threats
- AntiVirus Engine version 4.3.11

2. Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus from vnunet
- Starter Edition
- After installation, product version shows 5.5.0.212
- Intelli-Signatures detects 217,606
- AntiVirus Engine version 4.4.5

3. Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus Trial version (Before activating)
- Trial version
- After installation, product version shows 5.5.0.212
- Intelli-Signatures detects 217,606
- AntiVirus Engine version 4.4.5

4. Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus Paid version (activated)
- Paid version
- After installation, product version shows 5.5.0.212
- Intelli-Signatures detects 666,525
- AntiVirus Engine version 4.4.5

The hidden promotional link is offering old version of Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus compared to vnunet. I also noticed that the trial version and vnunet starter edition is pretty much the same except you can get a 30% off the retail price if you upgrade from vnunet starter edition to paid version. You can see from the intelli-signatures that the paid version is able to detect much more threats compared to the starter edition. The starter edition doesn’t have Startup Guard, Browser Guard, Process Guard, Cookie Guard, Keylogger Guard, Network Guard and Site Guard, so I guess that explains the significant drop in Intelli-signatures.

In my opinion, Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus offered by vnunet is the best option if you do not want to pay for it because it is able to scan and remove threats while trial does not remove threats detected during on-demand scans. For those that wasn’t so lucky to win this lucky draw but want to use Spyware Doctor with AntiVirus, you can use the version offered by vnunet.
