I'd just like to point everyone to this article on SpywareGuide.com, where Jayaraj Muthu Samy details his research on the current incarnation of the phonies that run Hijack-This.net. I wrote about this site earlier, and it seems they offer up bogus antispyware tools that change every few weeks. Currently it's something called 'SpyOnThis', and they recommend it in favor of HijackThis, pretending they own that product as well and claiming it is a good alternative for non-expert users.
Do not buy this program! As you can read from both the blog post at SpywareGuide.com and Eric Howes' Rogue Antispyware List, it will only find false positives and then urge you to buy the full product. The site also misuses the copyrighted name HijackThis.
