Lavasoft's Ad-aware: Ad-aware Standard Edition is THE award winning, free, multicomponent detection and removal utility that consistently leads the industry in safety, user satisfaction, support and reliability.
Everyone knows what a virus scanner is and what it does. There is a wide variety of malicious software that can be more harmful than viruses, and are not being detected by your anti-virus software. These hidden pests can create "backdoors" which bypass established security measures, compromise the integrity of your network, and threaten your personal privacy. This software is properly and rightfully termed: Spyware.
With its ability to comprehensively scan your memory, registry, hard, removable and optical drives for known datamining, aggressive advertising, and tracking components, Ad-aware will provide the user with the confidence to surf the Internet knowing that their privacy will remain intact. Let Ad-aware protect your privacy.
