Spyware & Adware
Removal Software
By Roger Weavers
Does your PC run slower than it
used to?
Do you get annoying popups and advertisements when you are in the middle of
surfing the Internet?
If you do you may have unwanted
spyware or adware on your PC.
Don't worry help is at hand.
There are a number of software products you can download to remove all these
unwanted programs and return your PC to its former performance.
I have tested some of these software
programs and most of them cost under $30 and scan your PC for spyware and adware.
All programs offer a free download which will detect BUT NOT remove the
offending files and registry keys. You will need to buy the full program
to automatically fix the problems found. There is not much to choose from
between these programs so you may want to try them all for yourself. I
have my personal favourite so look thorough my comments and choose which one
would be best for you.
Noadware
This is a plain and simple program which lists all the problem files and
registry keys. It also gives you a severity level so you can decide if you
want to remove it or not. Levels are "dangerous", "severe" and "not
critical".
PAL Spyware Remover
An easy to use program that gives you a full or quick scan option. This
program detected some files that the other programs didn't so this would be my
first choice for functionality.
SpyWare Nuker
This program had advanced options and log files but the interface I found to be
not as easy to use. Still a good program though
Adware Remover
Easy to use interface with options to run a quick or full scan on drive, folder
and/or registry. This program did not detect some of the problems that the
other programs did.
Xoft Spy
- Recommended
This program is a little more expensive at $39. but it will detect not just
spyware and adware but other unwanted files such as trojan horses, hacker
tools, keyloggers and more. Xoft Spy is just as easy to use but there are
more options and settings to enable you to configure it just how you want.
Try running one of these programs on your PC and
you will be surprised at the results.
Other free scans available, reviews coming
soon
