When I try to get this update thru the update engine I get a message that
the update is unavailable try later. I noticed you were asked this and sent
a link to that person. Is there a way to get this update, I've tryed several
times with the update engine.

Add this to your HOSTS file :

#
216.40.225.12 www.merijn.org
64.251.25.168 www.doxdesk.com
209.133.47.19 www.spywareinfo.com
#

This will enable you to reach the sites. Now, if we had some vigilantes
who would rid the internet of these miscreants like they use to in the
Old West ... ;)

Merijn's site has been under DDoS attack, therefore the server has been offline
more that it has been online. It is preferable that you use the update engine.

Try these link(s) for downloads - please check version, it should be [v1.52.0]
http://www.merijn.org/files/cwshredder.zip
http://www.merijn.org/files/CWShredder.exe
http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads/tools/CWShredder.exe

I did go have a look at it from your given link. Its a discussion forum, but
unable to make out what it is. I think it is some kind of spyware killer. I
already have Ad-aware and spybot. Would it be better protection to have this
one too. If yes, please give me the link to download the freebie version.
TIA
