So now if like me you just scan with SAS now and again there is no longer any need to have it installed, no updating before you use it etc. Have bookmarked it so that I can just bring it up and go 

[Rik]

Thanks, Ian.

Sounds great but there is only a difference of about 2mb or so between the online scanner download and the actual .exe version, also I scan offline sometimes so for me its beter to have the version on the pc, good idea but though.

[Sebby]

Is it me or is there a new version of SAS every week?

[Rik]

It's beginning to feel that way, isn't it, Seb.

[Sebby]

It is. Still, can't complain if they want to continually improve a free application!

[Rik]

It's amazing at the development work which goes into free apps, isn't it.

[Sebby]

Yep. Do they have a paid version too?

[Rik]

They do - I wonder how many use it though?

[Baz]

They do - I wonder how many use it though?

I do   

[Rik]

What made you opt to pay, Baz?

[Baz]

sorry Rik...... must be the way my warped mind works but there was supposed to be a touch of sarcasm there 

[Rik]

Ah.

[Sebby]

I suppose they're quite clever really. The free version is excellent, but it doesn't offer real-time protection, iirc.

[Gary]

There are better programs with protection out there I think, but as a freebie scanner its good
