- "Terminate spyware"
- Version reviewed: Spyware Terminator 2.2.0.411
This spyware scanner and removal tool does the job, but enabling some functions may cause slight slowdowns and it's not ready for Vista.
Spyware Terminator's crisp, clean interface uses simple buttons and tabs to operate and set options. The latest spyware signatures are automatically downloaded, and the real-time protection keeps baby-sitting to a minimum. Real-time protection monitors key spyware types and Windows objects, though slight system slowdowns depend on your machine. Those features and the simple scheduler will make this app appealing to novices.
Advanced users will appreciate Spyware Terminator's flexibility. Setting the sensitivity of various scans is as easy as moving a slider. Experienced users will want to enable the built-in antivirus tool, which extends the power of real-time analysis by comparing program code against a database of known viruses, Trojans, and worms.
From set-it-and-forget-it users to those delving into virus code, all will find Spyware Terminator flexible, simple, and effective, key measures of a good antispyware tool.

Version: Spyware Terminator 2.2.0.411
Cons: I have had this program before and it was better with the previous version, this version has way too many pop-ups and it keeps asking me to allow the same program over and over again, even though I check remember my answer. Another issue is that it does not seem to fnd any spyware at all,I used to have another program that detected spyware while I was using this program, this program just finds cookies, I think I will try to find something that actually finds spyware.

Version: Spyware Terminator 2.2.0.411
Pros: Better than SPybot Search & Destroy, in terms of scanning and real-time protection.
Cons: May cause some slight system slow-downs.
Also - If you already have an anti-virus, don't bother enabling the Clam AV or you will face more system slow-downs.

Version: Spyware Terminator 2.2.0.411
Pros: NONE WHATSOEVER
Cons: I've re-downloaded this so many times after reading the misleading positive reviews, and I thought I'd give it more than enough chances, but its still garbage. Just finds cookies, nothing more.

Version: Spyware Terminator 2.2.0.411
Pros: I used this for a couple weeks and it seemed to work ok for me. None of the problems as the others had.
Cons: What I didn't like about this program is every time I tried to run anything, a stupid popup would appear asking me if I wanted to allow it. Not just the regular exe part, but even different parts within the program. Even my firewall doesn't do that.
If I didn't want a program and all parts of it to run, I wouldn't have clicked it. I realize it's a good thing to notify me when there's a potential risk, but that's too much. If it's one thing I cannt stand, it's popup alerts you have to verify.
