Keep those Intrusive Ads Away

Ad-ware 2008 Pro protects your system from spyware and identity theft, thus preventing your sensitive data from prying eyes

Rakesh Sharma

Saturday, July 05, 2008

With each passing day and due to prolonged Internet use, there's a lot of malware entering our systems. Even without our knowledge, there could be a lot of software sending sensitive information to the outside world.

Ad-ware 2008 Pro is easy to install for even a novice. Once installed, it keeps your passwords and other sensitive data safe from malware such as key loggers, Trojans, spywares and other identity theft programs. Whenever, you try to download data such as photos, documents and other files from Web, it scans them for malware before they are completely downloaded to your PC.

Not only this, the software also optimizes your PC by periodically scanning and removing malicious software that eat up system memory and slow down your system.

Direct Hit!

The software creates log files which can be kept for future troubleshooting, in case your system goes faulty

 

It provides three different options for scanning: scanning of important areas only; scanning for whole computer; and scanning a particular file or folder

 

It also allows you to erase all information stored by browsers such as IE, Firefox or Opera to avoid leakage

 

If you are scanning the complete drive then you can even put conditions for speeding up the whole process. For eg, a file greater than 50 MB could be 'skipped'
