    Counterspy or MBAM?

    Hi, I'm still at my office, I use MBAM paid at my home PC and I'm very happy with it, but just a few moment ago my company got a free licence for Sunbelt Counterspy from the hardware vendor who provide my office hardware & maintenance.

    The company I work for always use Mcafee or Trendmicro or Symantec as their security service, for the 2009-2010 they have contract with Mcafee, while for 2011, I heard from the IT guys, they will be using Symantec again, so for the Counterspy software they wont be using it, the Counterspy software though will be given to anyone who want to use it back home.

    So should I use it or should I stick with MBAM? I read from brighthub review that Counterspy is better, while on the other side, the guy from the IT department said I be better stick with MBAM cause I use KIS and Counterspy will sure have conflict with KIS.

    Hope you guys can give me more info here, thanks.

    I use MBAM and it removes everything I've ever had to face. To me, it would be the best choice to keep what you've got because Counterspy will conflict with KIS.

    Search Malwarebytes

    They are both great programs, I have experience with full Malwarebytes, paid is with Real Time protection and IP protection. And never had conflict with other programs, ESET Smart Security, PC Tools Internet Security.
    Simply good program.

    I've not used CounterSpy before but I've read good reviews about it...if you're willing to forgo/abandon KIS for the chance to use CounterSpy, then go for it. If not, use MBAM... it works fine on my PC and as far as I know has few compatibility problems...
    They call me the mysterious one...
    my motto is...when it's hot, chill baby
