EnergyGuy's Review of iDownload.Com Spyware Avenger
15th Nov 2004
Overall Rating
- Value for money

Extremely easy to use, very high identification and removal success rate for spyware and adware, constant updates, automatic updates, active protection against future infections, easy to use but also highly customizable for advanced users.
Bad Points
This is more a negative against all spyware removal programs, but that is that no program is guaranteed to remove EVERYTHING 100% of the time. But honestly, Spyware Avenger has what I think is the best solution to that, in that you can submit a report to the Spyware Avenger security team with a click of the button. That report tells them everything that is on your computer, and allows them to determine and implement specific steps to remove it. So they have actually turned a negative into a positive.
General Comments
I have been using Spyware Avenger exclusively for the past few months to deal with spyware/adware and I am very pleased. The software is all inclusive, it scans, removes and adds a layer of active protection against future infections.
Spyware Avenger also automatically updates itself with all the latest removal definitions regularly and quickly, and I have to say the team at Spyware Avenger is great at keeping up to date with the newest threats. I have puprosely installed all sorts of spyware/adware including aggressive scumware, toolbars, popup popping hidden programs etc, just to see how Spyware Avenger would do. Every time, it removes them all and returns my computer to a normal state.
When I bought Spyware Avenger it was $34.95 and I believe that is still the lowest price it is available for.
