SpywareStop Review

Software Description: Spyware & Adware can not only result in data corruption, personal profiling, hacker attacks, pop-up ads, spying, but also identity theft.SpywareStop, the ultimate solution against spyware.

The Good:SpywareStop is a spyware removal product. This anti-spyware application does not offer as many features as our number one ranked product, but it does a decent job of keeping your PC spyware-free. The product is also easy to use.

SpywareStop searches for spyware in real time. In other words, the program monitors and alerts you as spyware attempts to install and run. Once a spyware component is detected, you will be able to select it and read a brief description. Then you may click on the component to see a brief definition, and decide to remove or ingore those items on the page of result as you like.

Besides including a description and threat level for detected spyware and adware, the program still offers quarantined list and scan schedule as well as scan location for users.

The Bad: SpywareStop is missing one feature—rollback capability. If you change your mind after deleting a spyware component, you can’t restore it. Although SpywareStop keeps their database updated regularly and blocks a large part of the harmful content, it still misses some features more than a lot of competitors. Besides, we also consider SpywareStop should have simplified the unappealing physical looks .

The Bottom Line:This is a simple product, but it does not quite keep up with the rest of the competitors as we figured. Antispyware is not a bad anti-spyware program, but it is far from the best.

As a anti-spyware removal tool, SpywareStop possesses three main functions for your system: scan your computer for hidden Adware and Spyware and delete them forever; block Adware and Spyware from installing on your PC beforehand; tell you the current situation of Spyware application which runs on your PC. After renaming from SpywareBot to SpywareStop, this product places even better performance in its efficacy. Besides including some security features we are looking for, such as tracking cookie and scanning parasites, it is very easy to customize settings in SpywareStop, and this software also offers various after-sales service as well as some timely technology help to its users.

Feature Set

After using it, you will find that all this process only takes several minutes to operate, while some of the spyware, adware, trojans,dialers and other dangerous parasites can be found successfully without slowing down your speed, even though you are searching on the internet.
