Adaware Review – Does Adaware Really Work?
Adaware, which is a product of cybersecurity provider Lavasoft, (formerly known as Ad-Aware) It was created to fight the various types of malicious apps and privacy invasions of which the majority of users are not aware. This includes programs that path your surfing habits, programs that hijack the web page that opens your browser and applications that show annoying advertising at the most inconvenient times. This free software comes with various features that will boost your device’s security and ensure it runs smoothly.
Adaware was able to detect the majority of malware that we threw its way. It had trouble getting rid of some malware, however. The program includes a few useful extras, including privacy monitors and a registry scanner. It also comes with a file shredder, advanced network monitoring, as well as a privacy monitor. Adaware isn’t as much protection as the most popular antivirus software.
Adaware’s participation in the AV Test tests in the lab resulted in a blockage of only 95. The threat rate was 4% for 0-day threats and 97% of known risks. They’re not terrible but they aren’t as good as the most effective security suites can accomplish.
Anyone who wants adware to perform better, should look at alternatives. We suggest Kaspersky, Bitdefender and others because they are known for their reliability in real-world tests. Additionally only Pro and Total plan users receive access to online technical and customer support, which could be a bit disappointing to some users. The company does offer various information and Frequently Asked Questions on its website, though.
