I have been using Lavasoft's AdAware Pro for 1 year, and it is time for renewal. As far as I know, AdAware's the real-time protection (called "AdWatch") has served me well, even though I was not sophisticated enough to understand the User's Guide and I therefore was not able to utilize many of AdAware Pro's features; rather, I accepted their default settings and accepted the efficacy on faith.)
I am soliciting thoughts about AdAware Pro: reasons supporting the renewal or reasons supporting trying another brand antimalware.
