5 stars (Brilliant system for any parent) - I am glad to learn that Amazon started carrying KidMail, so I can give it as a holiday gift this year! Since getting KidMail a few months back, my kids (5 and 8) have begun to correspond ENTHUSIASTICALLY with grandparents, aunts, and uncles. They love the bells and whistles in the software -- especially sending those cute Quick Messages -- from their KidMail.net address. Meanwhile, I love how the KidMail system intercepts all the SPAM that flies around the internet... I know how to delete MY junk email but don't want my kids getting messages about increasing the size of certain body parts or those requests to hold 16 million from the Nigerian Treasury secretary, much less graphic (...)!! Whenever I check my email from home or anywhere else, I get a convenient message if relatives or strangers TRY to contact my kids BEFORE they ever see it. I get to "mark" who is highly trusted, not trusted, etc. I can say whether messages go through automatically or I get a copy -- just to keep a tab on their communication. (To me, this is just the same as me not letting children answer the door when I don't know who is knocking.) Highly recommended for any caring parent -- BRILLIANT! ...

3 stars (Works good, but with lots of trouble - revised) - Maybe its just me. This software gets incredible reviews, and no one has any negatives, so I bought it. It does seem to do a good job finding the nasties. But the first thing I noticed was sloppy programming in the interface, like overlapping text, and border lines that aren't on the border. Hardly the stuff of award-winning software. Then I had trouble with it locking up my computer during updates, and sometimes during scans. I finally turned the automatic feature off. And it wouldn't automatically deal with the threats it finds, it waits all night for me to 'take action'. When I tried to use Active Desktop, forget it. Instead of synchronizing it would crash. I just did a clean install, of a brand new download, on a brand new HD, and I'm still having problems with it, just different ones. Like I said, maybe it's just me... Aug 23: I found the tech support at counterspy to be very attentive in trying to address my concerns, with some success. Now that I've upgraded to a new PC and XP, it's working flawlessly. I'm real happy with it's active protection. I would highly recommend it and give it 5 stars, if your running XP. 5 stars (Leading The Way) - Every now and then, a product comes on to the market which actually does just what you want it to do. I am hardly a system tech, but regularly clean my PC with various programs, and considered my system spyware free. That is until I read PC Advisor`s (UK) review of anti-spyware programs recently, and on their recommendation installed Sunbelt`s Counterspy. It was a breeze to install, and the fast scan showed 6 spyware progs installed. After I got up off the floor, Counterspy cleaned the drive and left me feeling more than a tad relieved. Sure, nothings` 100% foolproof, but this is easy to use, gives auto updates, and gives minimal system lag, not to mention being cheaper than the competition. If you`re unsure, read the reviews! 5 stars (BEST ANTI-SPYWARE PROGRAM!)...
