This is my personal review of the Ewido Free Trojan program.

My computer is an Athlon 2000 chipset based one, set up as a Dual-Boot operating system of C:Windows 98SE and D:Windows XP Home Sr1. (All of the latest updates installed) And i am running the following software as protection.

Ad-Aware SE Personal
ID-Blaster - v2.0
SpywareBlaster - v3.2
Norton Internet Security 2002 (No Anti-Virus program installed.)
SpyBot Search & Destroy 1.3
SpywareGuard - v2.20
Pop-Up Stopper Free Edition
Avast Anti-Virus program
a2 Anti-Trojan

When i first started to use this program, i found it very easy to use and it gave me some re-assurance that my computer would be protected.
I tried it out basically to try to find a program, that would allow me to remove some of the other programs on my computer that are taking up space.
The problems that i found with this program, started when theyintroduced an update that gave the user the full product free for 14 days.
After i had installed this update i had no end of problems with the Ewido Free program. As shown on the link to a forum i used to try to solve it:

A memeber of the forum tried to help in the matter, who i believe has something to do with the Ewido program.
And after i had tried to help solve the problem, i was told that an update would be availiable soon to cure all of the problems that were happening.
This i am still awaiting, as with other people who are having the same problem, but with the paid for version of the Ewido program.
I am hoping that i can do an update to this review, when the program is repaired and i will add any more information into this.

I also had help from this forum and the link for this is below:
