Virus Alerts for the Common Man The Best AntiSpyware... • free & paid (automatic) versions available • Protect yourself from Identity Theft,
and "system slowdown syndrome".
Fact: SpyWare is now a bigger threat than viruses...
Is your PC acting weird? Running Very Slow? Lockups? Getting Popups a lot?
In this article, we will show you our recommded AntiSpyware software that will protect you from Identity Theft and keep your system from getting infected with performance-killing spyware.
SpyWare trashes Windows systems and is more common than viruses... SpyWare removal is essential for today's PCs.
The original AntiSpyware - AdAware from Lavasoft -
Free & paid versions:
Based on our testing, AdAware is one of the best spyware removal and prevention softwares available today. The AdAware Plus and Pro versions operate automatically (like your antivirus program). They automatically keep themselves updated, run scheduled spyware removal scans, and protect your system in real-time. The AdAware free version requires you to run updates and scans manually on a regular basis (no real-time protections). All three versions are tried and true spyware removal tools that have been around since spyware first became a problem.
SpyWare - Today's Biggest Online Threat?
First, the big Internet problem for people was spam and the viruses they spread. Now it is spyware!
All PCs need AntiVirus AND AntiSpyWare software today. The VACM Team and other
software evaluation groups have rated one solution consistently at the top of the AntiSpyWare
list - and the consensus is that one of the best AntiSpyWare softwares available today is AdAware.
There are hundreds of AntiSpyWare tools available today, and the VACM Team has tested many of them since the year 2000.
Most of the free AntiSpyware tools require you to manually scan & update your PCs on a regular basis. The modestly priced AdAware Plus and Pro versions work automatically, just like your AntiVirus software does, getting updates, doing regular scans of your system and providing a real-time AntiSpyware "shield" whenever you are online surfing the web or doing email.
AdAware keeps spyware from even getting into your PC in the first place with
its real-time protection features. It quietly runs in the background whenever your PC is online,
keeping your system spyware-free.
All of our own systems and most of our customers' systems now
use only AdAware's antispyware to protect against Identity Theft and spywares in general. AdAware also comes with some other, very useful tools in its free and paid versions.
The feature our customers love most about AdAware Plus & Pro versions is that they no longer have to remember
to manually update and scan all their PCs on a regular basis.
Spywares and adwares do more than just steal your Personal Identity and Web Surfing Habits. Spywares can significantly slow down your system's performance. Spywares may also infect your system(s) so badly
that you can't even get on the Internet and may need to reinstall Windows from scratch (not a trivial repair by any means).
Based on our tests, the best
hands-free AntiSpyware solution today is AdAware.
It has active, real-time protection and we are pleased to see that a product of this caliber has such a reasonable price tag - a tiny price compared to the cost of repairing your system after spyware severely infects and corrupts it.
We highly recommend AdAware, to you and to our clients, to keep your
system(s) running fast and keep them out of the repair $hop.
We always try to keep you abreast of
the best AntiSpyware, AntiVirus and Firewall tools available and we have found that AdAware Free, Plus and Pro are all worthy anti-spyware tools.
Hi,
I am a long time subscriber to your
Virus Alerts for the Common Man service.
I had been faithfully running my spyware scans and removing spywares every day or two using the free spyware tools you recommend for a long time now. They have worked very well, but it was a pain to remember to regularly do the updates and spyware scans and wait for them to finish so that we could remove any spywares they found.
Well, I recently bought my own copy of AdAware Plus What a great program! I don't have to do anything manually, now, to keep the spyware out of my PC! I even have it scheduled to automatically scan my entire system every night.
Please pass on to your readers that, in my opinion, your assessment about AdAware was right on. I love it and I recommend it to all my friends. And my computer loves it too. It doesn't give me any trouble now and I feel that it is much more protecte now that I have AdAware, AVG antivirus and ZoneAlarm personal firewall.
Sincerely,
Jill San Jose, CA
Hello VACM folks,
I just wanted to send you a big THANK YOU for solving my really screwed up computer problems.
It was running
slower by the day, locking up, getting popups all over the place and doing other weird stuff!
And just as I was about to get it fixed at the computer
place in town, someone told me that "SpyWare" can cause those types of problems.
I then happened to see your VACM site and spyware articles. Thanks for the info and the wakeup call!
I don't know why spyware isn't called viruses
but I do know that my AntiVirus wasn't keeping
my system running very well . Spyware was wrecking it totally.
But I was able to fix it all without paying the shop downtown. My system now runs great - just like when I first bought it. No more
lockups, popups or unexpained slowdowns.
After getting the AdAware you
recommended, I let it scan my entire system and it removed 843 spywares. I was
amazed! I always figured I was OK because I only surf "good" web sites,
and I know not to install free software.
But AdAware's first scan removed 843 infections from my PC, so I guess they are everywhere!
Anyway, I love that AdAware always watches my system automatically for me and I saved at least $150 by not needing to have the computer place in town fix my computer. My PC was getting so bad that it was hardly usable anymore. AdAware fixed all my problems. Can't thank you enough. Keep up the good work!
Sincerely,
Robert D. Boston, MA

AdAware's
real-time protection watches for suspicious software and improper changes to your computer. If

Protect Yourself Now
Thousands of people download the AdAware free and paid versions every week. Based on VACM's testing, AdAware is one of the best AntiSpyware products available right now.
We also like AdAware's money back guarantee... you really can't go wrong (unless you do not get any antispyware protection).
We cannot stress enough how important it is to protect your systems from spyware today.
Everyone that surfs the web or does email needs these 3 things to protect themselves from malwares:
These are the 3 essential protections that everyone should have to keep their PCs out of the repair shop and protect themselves against Identity Theft.
By the way, here's a quick anecdote about a recent service call we made to one of our
clients. We
fixed several of this customer's PCs. They were infected with literally hundreds of spywares because they had purchased
a non-reputable AntiSpyware software product online.
It turned out that the software they bought was, itself, actually spyware and did nothing to prevent other spywares. They paid money for this bogus product! The moral of the story is this - Buying antivirus
software online does NOT guarantee that it is reliable or trustworthy and that it will protect you from spyware. Do your research before you buy any AntiSpyware software. And research is what the VACM Team does for you. The article you are currently
reading is the result of our research and testing in order to recommend to you "Stuff That Works".
Bottom line, the VACM Team gives AdAware Plus, Pro and Free versions very high marks...
AdAware helps you to NOT be a victim of Identity Theft and other performance killing malwares. And, of course, we cannot overlook the fact that the free Web History eraser included in all versions of AdAware can cost $20 or more on its own. AdAware is
a tool that all PCs should have. Download AdAware today.
