Spy Sweeper is award-winning anti-spyware software that effectively
detects and safely removes spyware and adware from your PC. Spy
Sweeper protects you from spyware's negative consequences, which
include a slower Internet connection, pop-up advertisement problems,
reduced computer performance, or in the worst case, the loss of private
information and identity theft. Spy Sweeper lets you protect your
privacy and your computer from a variety of spyware programs, from
those that monitor all of your computer's activities (system monitors)
to those that can steal or destroy data (Trojan horses). It also
detects programs that pop up ads on your computer when the program is
running (adware) and cookies that may contain and may transmit personal
information (tracking cookies). Spy Sweeper "sweeps" your computer
looking for evidence of these programs, reports its findings, and lets
you decide whether to quarantine and remove the program or keep it
running on your system. Quarantining and removing programs will disable
it until you decide to delete the program completely or restore it. F E A T U R E S :
* Comprehensive Removal Technology. Using new patent-pending removal
technology, Spy Sweeper effectively disables the most sophisticated and
debilitating spyware programs, including threats that employ "rootkit"
technology to evade detection and removal and continue wreaking havoc
with your PC. This advanced and highly effective technology saves you
time and effort by removing even the most vicious spyware threats in
one sweep.
* Advanced Detection Techniques. Spy Sweeper uses
FlexDef technology to identify and defeat emerging spyware threats
without having a direct match to an existing spyware definition or
signature. Using this technology, Spy Sweeper is able to dynamically
defend against threats as they emerge.
* Enhanced Blocking with
Smart Shield Protection. Spy Sweeper uses 16 advanced Smart Shields,
including ActiveX, Toolbar, and Spy Communications shields that block
new spyware installations so you can have the peace of mind you deserve
knowing you've got proactive, always-on protection.
* Deepest
Detection. Using state-of-the-art spyware research methods that
identify new spyware threats before they are widely distributed, Spy
Sweeper ensures you have the most powerful and up-to-date protection
against new emerging spyware threats.
* Unrivaled Removal. Spy
Sweeper's Comprehensive Removal Technology (CRT) is the backbone behind
the most advanced spyware removal engine in the industry. CRT deletes
the toughest spyware programs in just one sweep - even removing mutated
or "rootkit" spies, some of the nastiest next-generation spyware
threats.
* Accurate Risk Assessment. Detected spyware programs
are rated by risk level to help you understand the danger that each
spyware threat poses to your security. Plus, Spy Sweeper gives you a
quick overview of each threat, what it does, and its potential danger.
* Continuous Security Updates. Spyware programs morph frequently. Spy
Sweeper keeps you protected against these threats with frequent and
automated updates to its definition database.
* Protection Made
Easy. Spy Sweeper continues to earn wide-spread acclaim for its
user-friendly interface and usability. With an easy-to-use console and
customizable options, Spy Sweeper makes defeating spyware a breeze.
