Spyware and Adware Prevention and Protection
CounterSpy(tm) uses an extensive spyware signature database, real-time security agents, and ThreatNet (think "neighborhood watch" for spyware), to protect your machine from many types of spyware, adware, browser hijackers, search hijackers, keyloggers, ghost spammers, spy software, and other hazardous and sometimes illegal applications and files from breaching your privacy or trying to sell you things.
What does CounterSpy do when it locates spyware on my computer?
Answer: When spyware is located, a results page is displayed allowing you to see details of every spyware threat found: descriptions of the threat, files and settings located on your computer, advise on the threat, risk ratings per threat, and a recommended action to take. Once satisfied, you can quickly REMOVE, IGNORE, or QUARANTINE the spyware threats. When quarantined, the threat is deactivated and removed from your system and kept in a safe data store, allowing you to delete the files, or reverse the quarantine at a later date. |
