Webroot Spy Sweeper
I was shocked when someone had cracked my password for my counter strike and online bank account login. I had always been reluctant to buy any anti spy software because I thought it was a waste of my money. Boy, was I wrong, all that downloading had given me a keylogger where someone was able to access my account from GOD knows where. After this tragedy, I decided it was time to do some anti spyware research. After spending numerous hours I found webroot spyware 5.2 to be the answer. It doesn't slow my computer down like a lot of people have said, honestly, if you have an old piece of ****, its time to get a new computer and you can buy a new one for like $400 bucks these days. And if you call them, and tell them to give you a $10 dollar off because you had an coupon code that didn't work at there website, THEY GIVE IT TO YOU..wholly molly, I bought my for $19.95 =) I just download the software and enter my license file and BANG! Today as I was browsing website, I can tell you that it WORKS, i purposely went into Porno website and it blocked off all the damn popups.
My short review
Overall, I was pretty impressed with what Webroot offered in their SpySweeper program. It had some nice features to go along with keeping spyware and ad's undercontrol (ad-blocker). The older build of the software program operated the same when you upgrade to the newest build. The program would always alert you when there was a potential risk of spyware and would constantly monitor your internet traffic for risks. One thing I didn't like about the program was the fact that is was a bit of a resource hog. I've got a decent amount of RAM in my system, but it bogged things down in a sense...My mistake though in the end, cause I also used Norton alongside it, so that was probably why, but I had to reformat one time and put SpySweeper on my system first and it still took up quite a bit of resources. To conclude, SpySweeper is a reliable program that will protect against threats of spyware and I'm sure the program will get better over the years.
Best software of the year and technical excellence!
Since a long time ago, I always have had problems with spyware and malware which make my computer runs slow and cause other problems. I tried many utility software like Adware and other similar software, but these software did not eliminate all the problems, and some of the firewalls block not only adware and spyware, they block almost anything. Thus, it made my netlife almost impossible to live and caused too many headaches.^M
