Adware is a kind of malware that’s not as threatening as system-destroying viruses or data-harvesting spyware, however it can be just as irritating and intrusive. It’s also commonly used to execute unwanted tasks on your device, for instance, recording the places you visit and displaying advertising tailored to those locations. Adware creators earn money by displaying targeted ads without having to sell their product directly.
Adaware review, in contrast to other products that compete does not offer Windows security. The free version doesn’t support Mac or iOS devices. It also provides 24 hour technical support for customers of its Pro and Total packages. The basic package comes with real-time antivirus and behavior monitoring, as well as automatic downloading as well as a strong fire wall. However, it doesn’t provide web and email protection or any additional features, such as a file shredder.
In the tests of AV-test’s labs, the software performed well. It was able to eliminate all the known threats it was tested against and block 97% of 0-day attacks. These are impressive, but not as high as the top security suites.
Adaware Total is currently 30% more expensive than the rival. This is due to the fact that the firm has decided to stop offering different levels of protection, and instead bundles all their tools into one package. This means you will only receive one license, but you will be able to avail a wide array of PC protection and privacy options, including the removal of tracking cookies and optimization tools to speed up Windows boot time and the ability to block apps from accessing your camera or microphone.
