Ashampoo AntiSpyWare
adware and spyware scanner
Ashampoo AntiSpyWare is an adware and spyware scanner that offers real-time protection, automatic updates and several other security tools, including Internet tracks cleaning, file wiping, rootkit scanning and a startup manager. The program supports full drive scans, memory scans and registry scans, and it can optionally scan inside zip archives. Ashampoo AntiSpyWare provides many of the standard features but does not provide the user with any further information for the alleged malware items that were found, making it difficult to assess the problem. It also came up with several false positives during our test scans.
Pros: Real-time protection; automatic updates; trial version removes infections
Cons: No information provided for alleged malware; lack host file protection, browser guards, process guards and other advanced features
