CA Anti-Spyware 2009 : Destory Spyware

Utility that sniffs out and highlights any spyware, adware and Trojans on your PC, ready for placing in quarantine or deletion.

The software now has a much improved interface to rival similar programs such as Ad-Aware. It is just as easy to use and, in some ways, performs a better job.

CA Anti-Spyware found items that the free version of Ad-aware missed in its scan, which may explain why Ad-aware is freeware and PestPatrol isn't.

You can become as involved in the analysis as you like, reading the huge amount of advice available and making your own decisions, or simply let PestPatrol do the donkey work.

After scanning your selected drives, CA Anti-Spyware lists any suspect files with advice on the threat (privacy etc), the risk (high/low) and what to do (delete/quarantine).
