Spyware Detector
SpywareDetector™ Max Secure Spyware Detector
is a complete solution for individuals, professionals and home users.
The software is specially designed to scan, detect, delete and recover
spywares with an option of quick and full scan. Effectiveness of Spyware Removal:Spyware Detector was tested thoroughly on a number of PC's at a local cyber cafe and on the computers at our local library where spyware and adware infections are more numerous and difficult to remove than that found on the typical home PC.Many of the spyware infections found on these
machines were removed using the automated scan engine in as little as 5
minutes.
A handful of the more troublesome spyware remained
but were removed painlessly through the help of Spyware
Detector's built-in support features which are discussed below. When we did take Spyware Detector "in house" to
home PC's of friends and family members, it performed extremely well. It even eliminated a long standing problem with a
"Best Mexico Vacations" toolbar on my mother-in-law's computer scoring
me a few brownie points I might add
Ease of Use and Accuracy of Detection: The spyware scanner is easy to use with only a
simple click of a button required to run the entire scan process.
The results of the scan are easy to understand with each infection marked with a threat level so you can easily see the more problematic and harmful spyware infections. Scans were accurate and did not report any ghost infections or false positives. False positives are when a spyware remover reports a spyware infection that does not exist or reports a legitimate program as spyware. They are often used to push people into purchasing an application or even worse cause you to delete a legitimate software program or critical system files that make your PC run. We can say with confidence that false positives are NOT a problem with Spyware Detector. They also have the largest spyware detection database which is updated 2-3 times each week. Customer Support: As mentioned above, Spyware Detector removed
"many" of the spyware problems we encountered but not every one.
This is to be expected as some Spyware problems are much too complex to be removed with an automated scan. When such problems arise, you often must rely on the customer support provided by the vendor. In many cases, the support you do receive is inadequate and unfriendly. Much to our surprise, when we contacted Spyware Detector support about the spyware problems not fixed with their scanner, the support team was extremely responsive and eager to help. They asked us to provide as many details as possible about the problem and worked with us until the problem was solved and even followed up to make sure we were satisfied with the solution provided.
