CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Although its scanning engine could certainly use some work, this antispyware app has an effective real-time shield and a fine set of features. It's convenient that SpyWall Anti-Spyware integrates directly into Internet Explorer, but some users might wish for an option to disable the toolbar during the installation process. As a real-time shield, SpyWall Anti-Spyware was almost too reliable at times. Though it prevented almost all malware and Browser Helper Objects from sneaking onto our test PC, it often blocked harmless sites. Therefore, you may spend a bit of time configuring the application to allow certain URLs you frequently visit. We did find a number of helpful perks underneath this app's hood, including a scheduler, automatic definitions updates, logging, and a start-up manager. Unfortunately, the spyware scanner was a bit more disappointing, as it left behind a number of adware components we installed for testing purposes. The one-week trial period also is shorter than we ideally like to see. Savvier users might find this utility useful for its real-time protection and other extras, so long as they don't rely on it as their sole antimalware solution.Publisher's description
From Trlokom :Browse Web securely without ever worrying about hacking and spyware and keep your system free of resource-sucking spyware or adware. SpyWall is an antispyware solution with Internet Explorer firewall/sandbox and blocks spyware from even downloading on your PC. Other antispyware software programs do not provide such a sandbox feature. The multilayer defense strategy used by SpyWall controls the Web browser behavior to keep spyware out, blocks phishing attacks, stops execution of bad ActiveX, and performs periodic scans for spyware. In an enterprise environment, the SpyWall client policies and software can be controlled from a central location.
Version 1.2.38 adds more definitions.

Version: SpyWall Anti-Spyware 1.2.38
Pros: Does not rely on useless scan and clean methods and Did not annoy me while browsing.
I like the approach of blocking spywares before they get onto my PC. Based on CNET review I thought it was adware blocker but it actually blocked spywares.
