NoAdware review (update)

Friday, 11 March 2011

It's been over two years since we last reviewed NoAdware. Since 2007 it's been sitting at the top of our ratings for Adware and Spyware removal, so we thought we'd check in to see how the software has kept up with the competition.

The product has now been downloaded over 40 million times, in over 100 countries. When we first tested NoAdware it was new on the scene, but now it's a market leader. Despite a slightly tired looking website, the product itself still has plenty of life. It's still a small program with low CPU overhead which can happily hum away in the background. It is constantly updated, and so just as effective at identifying threats as it was in 2007.

The company behind the product have also added live customer support (a move being made by most reputable software vendors), available from 5 am - 11 pm Eastern Standard Time.

In our tests, NoAdware detected 100% of the threats we knew about, and threw 0% false positives, proving that this software title is still a contender and rightfully sits at the top of our user generated league table.

Other names: NoAdware, noadware.net, NoAdwear
Requirements: Windows XP | Windows Vista | Windows 7

NoAdware review

Thursday, 16 October 2008

NoAdware is a decent adware and spyware scanner and removal tool. Like most of its competitor software, it will scan your machine for free, and then require purchase to allow removal.

The company rightly claim that your PC is likely infected with Adware or Spyware if you have:


  • Downloaded music online

  • Noticed you PC is running extremely slow

  • Noticed you are pestered by those horrible popup ads

  • Noticed that your homepage keeps changing


Spyware and Adware is software that allows publishers to snoop on your browsing activity, invade your privacy, and flood you with those popups adverts. The programs run silently in the background of your PC, using up processor power and slowing down your machine until it becomes unusable.

NoAdware will scan and remove Adware and Spyware completely. The title has tended to lag behind the more popular SpywareNuker in our poll, but the software seems robust and is not a second rate choice.
