Detailed
AdwareAlert
Review
AdwareAlert is popular anti-spyware
program which has recieved many positive reviews. But how does it
really shape up, and is it really as good as some people say?
In this review, we will
examine the positives and negatives of Adware Alert, and leave it to
you to decide whether this is the right software for you.
So let's get started:
Features:
Adware Alert has the usual features, such as the ability to scan
your hard drive, select various directories to scan, and pick which
parts of your system to scan (such as cookies, registry, and active
processes). It also has a quarantine feature and an ignore threat
feature.
This means AdawareAlert
isn't packed with features, but it has enough to ensure a thorough
scan of your system for spyware.
Ease of
Installation:
AdwareAlert is a fairly small download of
3.4mb. Once the file is downloaded, you simply double click the
installation file, accept the license agreement, and it will begin
to install. The installed program takes about 11.2mb in hard drive
space.
Support:
The support for AdwareAlert consists of LiveChat
support, which means you can talk to someone (albeit through an
instant message type window) and have all of your questions
answered. Clicking on the help icon in the program will take you to
a tutorial style walk-through on their website, which takes you
step-by-step through the usage of the application.
Presentation:
The presentation of AdwareAlert is simple and intuitive.
It shouldn't take you long to become accustomed to the interface and
navigate the features with ease. The screen shots below will give
you an overview of the main feature tabs.

do so. |
Conclusion:

promises. The support is very good, and the application itself is
very easy to use. The features aren't very advanced, so it is
basically a straight forward no frills spyware remover which can get
the job done.
