Review of Ad-Aware Pro Security, Anti-spyware software, anti-malware and anti virus

Short Review About Ad-Aware Pro Security by Lavasoft as an antivirus, anti spyware and anti malware.

How's necessary of Security Software made Lavasoft produce a security sofware is named by Ad-Aware Pro Security.  A few years ago, antimalware vendors chose not to include anti-spyware features for fear of lawsuits by adware vendors if they labeled adware as spyware. Today, by calling adware an "extended threat," antimalware publishers are folding anti-spyware capability into their security products once again. The idea that adware is not spyware is an argument that adware initiators can no longer maintain. Even if a legitimate marketing organization is not trying to steal your identity, if it installs adware on your PC, it is still spying on you to record your online surfing behavior so that it can accurately target you with advertising. Lavasoft's aptly named Ad-Aware knows about adware, and it knows about even more dangerous versions of spyware and the entire universe of malware.

Ad-Aware includes quite a complete feature set. It scans downloaded files and checks for threats. If you attach any storage device such as a USB drive to your computer, Ad-Aware knows about it and checks the contents for malware. If it suspects a file but the file is so new that there is no positive way to identify it as malware, it moves the suspect to a sandbox emulator to monitor its behavior.

With Ad-Aware, you can shop and bank online safely and protect yourself on social networks. Ad-Aware protects against email-borne attacks as well. There is a game mode in case you do not want interruptions from your security software while you are playing a game or watching a film. While you surf the worldwide web, Ad-Aware is always scanning for URLs that it knows to be dangerous. Ad-Aware checks each site against a database of websites that it knows to be malicious. The database that it checks updates every five to 20 minutes so that you are not likely to stumble upon a phishing site.
