Although PC Tools may not want you to hear this, the release of Spyware Doctor 5 wasn't received too warmly. Die-hard Spyware Doctor users thought the new features in the latest edition made it more cumbersome and resource-heavy than the previous edition. The sign of any good developer is that they listen, learn and react. The good news is that this is exactly what PC Tools have done with the latest revision.

Spyware Doctor 5.5 was released quietly at the start of the new year and the new version is far more lean and system friendly, along with a number of new features. At this stage, few people know what these new features are, but as an existing Spyware Doctor 5 user, it's worth making sure you have this latest version installed.
