Adaware, a product of cybersecurity company Lavasoft, (formerly known as Ad-Aware) is designed to fight the various types of malware and privacy infringements of which a lot of consumers are not aware. Adaware is a collection of programs that track your browsing patterns, courses that alter the browser’s homepage and applications that show annoying advertisements at the worst times. This free program also offers many additional security features that will help you stay safe and ensure your device runs efficiently.
In our tests, adaware was able to detect most of the malware we tried to throw at it. It had trouble getting rid of some, however. The program includes a few useful extras, like privacy monitors and a registry scanner. It also includes an advanced file shredder, network monitoring, as well as an privacy watch. Adaware does not offer the same level of protection as leading antivirus software.
Adaware’s participation in the AV Test lab tests resulted in a blockage of just 95. 4percent of threats that are 0-day and 97% of known risks. They’re not terrible but they do not compare to the best security suites can do.
Adaware users who want better performance should consider alternatives. We particularly recommend Kaspersky and Bitdefender both of which are well-known for their reliable performance in real-world tests. Additionally only Pro and Total plan users get access to online technical and customer support, which may be a bit disappointing for certain users. On its website, the company offers many information as well as frequently asked questions.
