ZeroSpyware 7.01

Nowadays, spyware is spreading more and more and its complexity is also exponentially rising, so removing spyware completely from a computer system has become a difficult process. Although there are a lot of programs on the market that pretend to efficiently remove spyware, they actually remove only a part of it, so, next you know it, spyware will be back into your system causing malfunction. Also, there are few programs that can monitor the web browser in real-time, intercepting the installation of spyware or suspect toolbars. A software that manages to successfully fill these gaps is ZeroSpyware. The name of the program states its functioning, the complete removal of spyware threats from any system.

The software is easy to install, using the step-by-step wizard and also takes up little disk space and little system resources, so the program can be run without problems on older computers.

The interface of ZeroSpyware has a pleasant graphical aspect and it's ideal to be used by beginners, as all the command and options are intuitive and well placed. The software is based on tabs. Each of them deals with a certain aspect, like scanning for spyware, displaying the status of the real-time protection, scanning the system vulnerabilities and configuring program's settings.

The scanning process can be customized and the software can do a quick scan, in areas of the system where it's more likely to find spyware. ZeroSpyware can scan all the browser's cookies, active processes and common types of files. Besides that, the software can monitor any web browser installed in the system, for catching spyware before they can do any harm and can also prevent them for modifying the browser's settings, like changing the default start page. All the processes running in the system are also continuously monitored for suspect behavior.

A feature of ZeroSpyware is the possibility to scan the system for vulnerabilities, which basically scans for outdated security patches, as it analyzes every file of the operating system. The General Settings tab allows configuring the functionality of the application in an intuitive mode, so beginners should not have a trouble using this feature. Moreover, for this type of users, there is a remote restoration service available, that can guide them in removing spyware if they can't do this on their own.

Pros:
It's very efficient at removing any type of spyware and can also monitor the web browser, for intercepting spyware before it can cause any harm. Also, it includes a remote restoration service, for users who can't successfully remove spyware from their systems.

Cons:
The lack of complex features may be disturbing for an advanced user.

ZeroSpyware is a great software for removing any type of spyware and keeping the computer clean.
