Webroot Spy Sweeper v5.5.7.124
Webroot 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).
Features:
* 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.
