log looks clean to me !

That's logical. If it's indeed the same engine they share DLLs.
Many programs have very messy uninstallers that don't check whether DLLs are used by others and just delete anything they may have installed themselves...

Yes Logical and a warning for those with microsoft antispyware loaded .don't load the other ,main difference is CounterSpy workes with 98 microfts doesent .

For another important difference, see my post in this thread:
