Non-notable software. ospalh (talk) 11:52, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep SUPERAntiSpyware has nearly 20 million worldwide users, is recommended by Dell tech support (among others), is used as a tool on forums such as Majorgeeks and TechSupport Forum, and is available through major software retailers such as CompuCom, Software House International, Computer Troubleshooters, and Tiger Direct. It has as much merit as any other commercially available software mentioned in any other wikipedia entry.
Delete. Not notable, refs give only one mainstream indep. source, and that's only a review. Primarily a promotional article. Ohiostandard (talk) 12:23, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Another advertisement for someone's pet software project. Fuzbaby (talk) 00:06, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. A popular, reasonably-well-known piece of software that's often enough recommended for use by independent sources. Review of software in major magazine is strong indication of notability; exactly what other sort of coverage should we be looking for? Plausible search term, useful content -- that's what Wikipedia articles are supposed to provide. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 15:23, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Reluctant Keep Just notable enough between the PC World review and this one I came across. Article definitely needs work. --Cybercobra (talk) 18:58, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
