SpyBot Reviews & Product Details

1. Superb depth of anti-malware scanning - will locate not just cookies but nail down registry entries as well 2. The pro version has a winning combination of antivirus And anti-malware. We honestly opine that that alone will suffice for the security needs of any PC. At the most, one could use "CCleaner" software occasionally 3. Features like Beacon and immunization make this a class apart

Bottom-line: look no further! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using Spybot for YEARS and I can rank it as one of the top 5 essential programs on my computer. I remember when I was a kid even my brother had it installed on his computers.

Well, Spybot is very powerful and i'm using it with windows defender, I like it because gives me a good internet security, it is free, it doesn't get laggy, has a very clean interface, allows me to repair registry files, removes lots of unwanted spywares and it's always up to date.

although it's fast, it consume lots of my computer's memory, it's always up to date but it's very slow to download it and its very slow to scan as well, sometimes it takes hours to finish its scan ( depending on which kind of scan you're making ) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use and ability to uses on different platforms without major installation configurations. I sometimes need something to take a bite out of all the critters that are biting at my heals all day.

Fulfill what he promises.

I've been using this program for years and fulfilling what it promises. It has a very comprehensive database that helps to be protected. On those who comment on the language, I downloaded it today on a new computer, but the installer does not give to choose Spanish, when installed appears the entire program in Spanish, at least to me that's what happened to me.

Pros: Good anti-threat database is free, at least in the basic package Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's in English, but it'll save your skin. It's his only drawback. That's why I don't put a 10 on it.

It would be necessary to expand to more languages to facilitate its expansion Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Couple it with an antivirus since it is not integrated into Spybot in the free version, and we have a simple arsenal for protecting a computer. The free version is therefore more than sufficient for personal use, as it will effectively clean against malware and spyware. The paid version offers the integrated antivirus but also powerful tools that can prove useful, notably the creation of a boot CD to eliminate infections directly without going through the operating system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is no integrated antivirus, it's just a simple antimalware, but it will do most of the work in case of an infection, or you have to switch to the paid version of the software, which can be problematic in some cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
