  • Delete Not notable and the references are not from independent sources (nor are they reliable) --Childzy ¤ Talk 22:39, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Software-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 16:31, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - As stated in another discussion... this "new" user with no past edit history has come out of the woodwork to plaster Wikipedia with deletion requests for all the products of a single company. This should raise a few red flags as to the motive of the AfD. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 154.5.119.134 (talk) 15:25, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Meanwhile, the chief defense has come from an anon IP who does nothing but work on Paretologic articles. So I think it cancels out. Bahustard 19:09, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep despite the original author's clear intention to plug the product. There is an attempt to address a controversy over the product being suspected as a kind of trojan. The article would benefit from a fuller treatment of this, and greater impartiality overall. I also wonder why a related product also has a Wikipedia article but with the spelling "XOFTspy." See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/XOFTspy Portable Anti-Spyware, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/ParetoLogic Privacy Controls, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/RegCure, and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/ParetoLogic. -- Rob C. alias Alarob 04:02, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This software is MALWARE. It destroys computers. This is not a safe article, and is undermining Wikipedia's credibility. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.78.150.119 (talk) 01:26, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
