If you look through reviews of anti-spyware program you will
often see AdwareAlert making an appearance. Many of these
reviews will be positive in their outlook but this is no
guarantee that it actually is a good product. We have therefore
undertaken our own testing and review of the product to see
what it has got going for it and what is holding it back.
Features – AdwareAlert is by no means
packed with additional features, it does exactly what a spyware
remover should do but no more. A through scan of the hard drive
can be undertaken, and it is possible to pick and choose the
locations to scan through. Additional features include an
ignore list and quarantine list.
Ease of Installation - At just 3.4mb
AdwareAlert is installed from a small download file, this
though will take up 11.2mb of overall space on the hard drive.
Installation is completed when the license agreement is agreed
to, and then the installation is completed.
Support System – There is a LiveChat
system to offer support for AdwareAlert. LiveChat works by
providing a chat system based though an instant messenger
system, where a knowledgeable person can talk though an
question that a user may have. Within AdwareAlert there is a
help feature that allows a basic run through of how to work the
program, providing details about spyware as well as the
application.
Appearance – Simple and easy to use,
AdwareAlert is very is to navigate around. It is easy for
anyone with even a little computer knowledge to use, as can be
seen from the screenshots below.

From the main screen
AdwareAlert will show what scans have
already been undertaken and what problems
have been found. This is also one point
where further scans can be
commenced.

It is possible to pick and
choose which locations of the computer’s
hard drive to scan for issues.
|
|
|
AdwareAlert will create a
quarantine list that allows for spyware
files to be either deleted or
restored.
|
|
|
The Setting Menu allows a
user of AdwareAlert to make a choice in
regards to the operation of the program.
This could mean ignoring the scan of
cookies and other registry entries, as well
as auto update and start-up
options.
|
|
|
Within the Ignore List it is
possible to pick the spyware threats to be
ignored from future scans and
repairs.

Final Thoughts – It is easy to see why
AdwareAlert is one of the market’s leading anti-spyware
products available. It does everything you would expect of a
spyware remover. Easy to use, and complete with a good support
network, we would have perhaps liked to see a few more advanced
features.
With a satisfaction guarantee, AdwareAlert will repay the
purchase price within 56 days if the purchaser isn’t happy with
the product. This means that it is a no risk product.
