A Look at SUPERAntiSpyware

The Gizmo Web site calls this program the best free anti-spyware program out there. And after using it for a little while, I agree.

SUPERAntiSpyware comes in two versions, a free version and the Pro version for $29.95. Daily updates for both are free. SUPERAntiSpyware Professional includes real-time blocking of threats, scheduled scanning, and free unlimited Customer Service via e-mail.  The free version requires you to initiate a scan, but then when it finishes, it will wipe out the threats.

Now, there is some misconception about anti-spyware programs and anti-virus programs. The majority of folks think you can only have one anti-malware program running at a time. That is only half true. You can only have one antivirus program running, otherwise the two programs will conflict with each other and start rendering fall positives. Anti virus programs include AVG, Avast, Norton, Microsoft Security Essentials (my personal recommendation) and several others.

But you may one or more anti-spyware programs on your system. Best not to run more than one at a time, but you can use more than one to double check your system.

The two best are SUPERAntiSpyware and MalwareBytes.  I use both, but find SUPERAntiSpware catching more threats. Gizmo agrees with me. Give it a try and see what it finds.
