    SYHARRIS  I've been using MacScan since I purchased it over a year ago as a MU promo for $12.95 and have had no problems whatsoever with it, no crashes nor even a hint of dyspepsia. MacScan has always run smoothly and easily for me.

    True, it's never found any cooties, but then I'm pretty careful about what cookies my browsers allow and have my browsers set to delete cookies at session's end.

    In Safari, I use PithHelmet to block all cookies from the likes of Doubleclick and all similar ilk. And then I purge all other cookies at session's end using Safari's "Reset" feature.

    At its current price of $30, though, I don't think that I'd purchase MacScan ....it is a bit steep imho.   (Version 2.5.2)

    DGOMBAU  I have been trying it in demo mode, and it is nice and easy. I place a value on my time and don't want to have complex apps that have to be configured in conjunction. MacScan is simple and gets RID of those despicable tracking cookies. If that was all it did, it would be worth the cost for that alone.

    Tracking cookies are insidious invasions of privacy. How DARE they! It is like someone with a clipboard and video camera trailing you whenever you go shopping at a mall, and recording everything you look at or pick up, as well as everything you browse in a bookstore.  (Version 2.5.1)

    SECUREMAC  Thank you for your time in commenting on MacScan. MacScan is for your privacy and security, with MacScan you know that you are being protected against spyware for the Macintosh as well as given the ability to scan and remove tracking cookies.

    MacScan is a commercial application as well so you can be assured proper support and updates to the program and definition files.  (Version 2.4.1)
