Ewido Anti-Spyware
This software began life as Ewido Security Suite and the name was changed to Ewido Anti-malware in December 2005. With the release of 4.0, it was later changed again to Ewido Anti-Spyware.
Ewido Anti-Spyware included new features such as scheduled scans, file shredder, running process manager, and a new interface. It also included an LSP and BHO viewer. There was a free version with no realtime protection and automatic updates (Users could update manually). The last known price was $29.99.
After Grisoft's acquisition, however, Ewido's Anti-Spyware developments has not stopped. It continues to exist as Ewido Online Scanner or Ewido Micro Scanner, that uses the full Ewido engine and signatures, without excluding heuristic detection options. As of AVG 8.0, AVG Anti-Spyware is integrated into AVG Anti-Virus and is no longer available as a standalone product. That means that AVG Anti-Spyware will not receive updates any more.
