Webroot Spy Sweeper

From the Manufacturer
Why do you need Spy Sweeper?

• Spyware infects 9 out of 10 Internet connected PCs and has eclipsed viruses as the #1 threat to online privacy. The consequences of unidentified spyware can include identity theft, computer corruption and bombardment from pop-up ads. Spyware can easily bypass anti-virus and firewall protection by piggybacking on legitimate downloads to stealthily install on your system without your knowledge.
• Spyware programs are deeply rooted applications that intertwine with core system functions to make manual removal without system disruption nearly impossible for most PC users.

Who needs Spy Sweeper? Webroot strongly believes spyware protection software, like anti-virus and firewall software, is essential for all Internet connected PCs. You're at increased risk of spyware infection if you:

• Share files like music or photos with other users. Download freeware or shareware applications. Share your computer with other users.
• Spend more than five hours online each week.

How does Spy Sweeper protect you from spyware?

Spy Sweeper owners receive seamless updates to new spyware definitions to ensure ongoing protection from new threats, which emerge daily. Spy Sweeper quarantines any files or file traces that match the threat database. Quarantining disables spyware functionality for immediate protection, while giving you the option to review and permanently delete suspect files or safely restore them if they are essential to the operation of desirable applications.
• Spy Sweeper actively monitors and protects your system memory, home page and new cookie additions to provide proactive safeguards.
