AntiSpyware

AntiSpyware review

Monday, 14 February 2011

Spyware and adware spell double trouble for any computer. They can have malicious intent - collecting personal data such as passwords and behavioral patterns to enable thieves to steal your identity and money, and they also steal your computers resources - slowing down your machine until it grinds to a halt.

If you are concerned about the security of your private data, or have a computer which has become slow and unresponsive, you would be well placed to run a spyware/adware scan.

And so to AntiSpyware. This product really does do what it says on the tin. It will scan your machine for spyware/adware for free, and then remove them when you have bought the software. It detects a wide range of rogue programs and is updated daily with the latest threats so you don't need to worry about the latest threats. Here's the full list of software that it will detect and remove:


  • Adware
  • Downloader
  • Browser Helper Object
  • Rogue Antispyware
  • Trojan
  • Spyware
  • Virus
  • Backdoor
  • Key Logger
  • Malware
  • Hijacker
  • Trojan-Dropper
  • Dialer
  • Trojan-Clicker
  • Rootkit
  • Worm
  • Email-Worm
  • Commercial RAT
  • Trojan-Proxy
  • Flooder
  • Firewall Killer
  • Data Miner


Some of those sound pretty scary, but you don't really need to know what they are just so long as you are protected.

In our tests AntiSpyware performed well and detecting and eliminating threats. It is a top of class product that competes directly with the popular NoAdware and Spyware Nuker. Perhaps one thing that sets this product apart is the live support feature - something that is often a sore point with users of other products.

Other names: AntiSpyware, Anti Spyware, antispyware.com
Requirements: Windows XP | Windows Vista | Windows 7
