Spy Sweeper is a software that will detect and remove spyware and adware.
Even the most vicious spyware programs like CoolWebSearch and Look2Me are no match for this powerful anti-spyware solution.
Featuring a refined detection and quarantine process, Spy Sweeper successfully roots out all types of spyware, adware, keyloggers, system monitors, Trojan horses, cookies, and more.
Once spyware is detected, the quarantine feature allows users to easily manage spyware by safely removing it without harming other programs on the PC. When it comes to removing spyware, Spy Sweeper is second to none.
Spy Sweeper will now not only remove adware programs, but take clean-up one step further by wiping away any lingering effects left behind such as desktop shortcuts and Start Menu icons.
Spy Sweeper continuously protects you with minimal disruption by operating silently in the background and updating threat definitions automatically to defend against new threats, giving you peace of mind to safely surf the Web.
For advanced protection, Smart Shields constantly guard your browser and operating system, stopping spyware in its tracks.
With a dozen shields, including the new ADS shield, Spy Sweeper prevents spyware installations instantly. Trusted by millions around the world to
protect their PCs, Spy Sweeper features an easy-to-use interface that makes defeating spyware simple and painless.

All users can customize Spy Sweeper for their individual use, providing maximum protection with ultimate control. Backed by customer support this trial version contains all of the bells and whistles of the regular priced version.
Choose a Quick, Full or Custom Sweep: With Spy Sweeper, you can easily choose to perform a quick, full or customized sweep. If you're looking for an immediate diagnosis, choose a quick sweep. For a pinpointed search, customize your sweep to have Spy Sweeper skip files by folder or file extension. For a deep cleaning, opt for a full sweep.
Exclude Files from a Sweep: Spy Sweeper allows you to save time during a sweep by skipping specific files or different sections of your PC. You can select specific file extension, such as .xls or .mpg to exclude.
Additional Highlights
As
soon as it's installed, Spy Sweeper gives 360 degrees of protection against spyware, including:
Simple Sweeps: Detecting spyware and removing unwanted programs found on your computer in three effortless steps

Even Easier to Use
We performed extensive user interaction testing and refined the Spy Sweeper interface to make it even easier for users of all technical abilities to stay protected. Advanced users continue to have the power to configure the program to suit their unique needs, while new users can breeze through the straightforward setup and menus. The new interface sets the standard in ease-of-use and efficiency for spyware removal programs.
Commanding Spyware Detection and Removal
Spyware programs are known to mutate quickly. Spy Sweeper uses adaptive definition technology for detecting spyware mutations that haven't yet received a defense definition. This is yet another benefit of having the world's best spyware research team on your side.
More Powerful Blocking Defenses
Enhanced Smart Shields prevent highly developed spyware programs from ever installing on your PC. You'll receive valuable action alerts to any changes in your computer's core functions, including startup, memory and Internet security settings.
Enhanced Rootkit Discovery Methods
Malicious spyware uses rootkit technology to bury its files deep within your PC. Spy Sweeper finds and destroys these programs with robust rootkit discovery methods, a feature many other anti-spyware programs lack.
