The Good: When you purchase Anti-Spyware software, you want it to eliminate the spyware that is currently attacking your computer, as well as prevent future spyware from even making its way onto your computer. XoftSpySE does this with great success. The program is very user friendly and easy to navigate; it does not take a computer savvy person to be able to run it. I was also pleased to see that the number of definitions scanned for is very large.
XoftSpySE protects from many other forms of dangerous content as well. Along with spyware and adware you will be safe from popups, keyloggers, trojans, hijackers, and tracking cookies. These are all great threats that can lead to much more than just a slow computer; they are used to take personal information.
One of the really great things about XoftSpySE is that it can be set to automatically update, run at a certain time, and start when your computer starts; this means that if you don't want to have to mess with it much, you don't have to. Just install it and let it "do its thing."


The Bad: We used to sing great praises of XoftSpySE, but it has not been keeping up with changes. While other programs are updating and really improving, nothing has been improving with XoftSpySE. At first it would detect everything, but now it often finds nothing while Spyzooka picks up what XoftSpySE misses.

The Bottom Line: While XoftSpySE used to be really great, it is very unwelcoming when a company does not keep up with changes. In the world of anti-spyware, you have to always be updating and improving and atleast attempting to stay one step ahead of the "bad guys." XoftSpySE is either taking a break from this... or hiding out while working on something amazing. I feel like it is the former rather than the latter though.

Review SummarySpyZooka is a program for anti-spyware that was created by an average person that was tired of being attacked with spyware. With recent updates, Spyzooka has become the leader of the pack for Anti-Spyware.AdWareAlert is very effective software to not only find and eliminate current threats on your computer, but help prevent them from ever getting there in the first place.XoftSpySE is a very comprehensive Anti-Spyware program that detects, blocks and eliminates Spyware and other forms of malicious content.Spyware Remover is a very user friendly program that will eliminate current threats on your computer. It will also help to prevent future threats from ever making there way into your system.NoAdware is software that offers protection from not only Spyware, but many other types of content that harm your computer. There are some key components missing in it's protection system though.Spyware Nuker is great software to protect from Spyware and Adware, but it does not have the ability to protect from as many other threats as the competition.

The Good: I really like often it updates. This shows me that they actually put a lot of effort into making a quality program. The scheduling is very convenient too, I have it set to run at a certain time and don't even mess with it much.

The Bad: A lot of times when it runs scans it does not detect anything. I have not decided if this is because it protects my computer so well or if because it is not detecting them.

The Bottom Line: It noticed a bunch of spys at first, but not has picked up on a whole lot since then. My computer is still doing great so I am giving it the benefit of the doubt and assuming that it just protects really well.

The Good: The library of detection was huge. Xoftspy protects against much more crap than the other programs I have used before.

The Bad: I have always used free ones in the past, so I didn't really like having to pay for this, but whatever.

The Bottom Line: It works really good. I love to have a computer that actually runs how it is supposed to and isn't slowed down by a bunch of junk.

The Good: My computer is running so much smoother now. XoftSpy detected and removed so much spyware from my computer, I could not believe it. The price is very good too.

The Bad: I loved everything about it.

The Bottom Line: My computer was filled with spyware. The free programs available were not cutting it, but now my computer is running great.
