Vista Ready: Spy Sweeper 5.3 is now compatible with Microsoft Windows Vista. Spy Sweeper stops spyware in its tracks while offering home computer users the ability to configure the program to suit their specific needs, such as:

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.

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.
