I ran PestPatrol's on-line scanner (it can be found at http://www.pestscan.com/ ). It reports that Eraser is Spyware and classifies it as a “nuker” (It defines a nuker as: A program that disables a machine through damage to the registry, key files, the file system, etc.). Any comments on this classification? BTW, I’ve been running Eraser for a couple of months now and it works great.
 
Have a read of the other threads on Trojen on this forum to get an update of where things are at in relation to this.
Note: Eraser is Not Spyware.
