Detailed
XoftSpySE Review
XoftSpySE is a popular anti-spyware
product made by ParetoLogic. It claims to be the most advanced
spyware detection and removal application on the entire internet.
But does it really live up to these claims?
In this review, we will
examine the positives and negatives of XoftSpySE, and find out if it
really is the best spyware remover.
Let's get started:
Features:
XoftSpySE features everything you would expect from an anti-spyware
application, and few nice extras which you may not expect. Firstly,
you have the option of changing your "home page" setting, in case
you have been the victim of "browser hi-jacking" spyware.
The comprehensive scan
settings allow you to scan your files, system registry, active
processes, system folders, or selected folders. The scan provided by
XoftSpySE is very unlikely to miss anything out.
You can also use the
"schedule" feature to make XoftSpySE run at certain times of the day
(or night) so your PC always remains free of spyware.
The final two main features
are the ignore list and backup list. These options allow you to
ignore certain files which show up as spyware, but you know aren't.
The backup list lets you back up your files before you delete them -
just in case you still need them for some reason.
Ease of
Installation:
XoftSpySE is a small 2.8mb download. Once
you've downloaded it, you simply open the file, accept a license
agreement - and then it will automatically install itself onto your
computer. Once it has finished, you can choose to run the program
straight away.
Support:
The support for XoftSpySE is equally impressive as
everything else about XoftSpySE. The program features its own help
system which will guide you through the program features. You can
also visit the ParetoLogic website, where you will have pre-sales
questions, FAQ's, and comprehensive support for licensed users.
Presentation:
As you can see from the images below, XoftSpySE has a very clear and
intuitive design. It's easy to understand all the different options,
and all you really need to do is use the "start scan" icon,
and then the "remove" icon. The program does the rest of the work.
This image shows both the "start scan"
and "scan results" screen. This is where
you will scan your PC files and registry
for harmful files, and where the will be
shown.
You can also remove these harmful files
with the "remove" button, at the bottom
right corner. |
This shows the "general settings" screen. This is where can
choose whether XoftSpySE loads on start-up, and when it
connects to the internet to look for updates.
It also has a "default home page" setting - which can set
your homepage to whatever you like. This is useful for
eliminating spyware which changes your home page. |
This
image shows the "scan settings" tab. Here's where you can
choose which types of spyware and adware you wish XoftSpySE
to scan for.
Most users will want to keep all these boxes checked - as
this will be the most thorough and effective scan. |
This
image shows the "backup list" tab, which is where you can
backup files before you delete them.
This is useful, because you can easily restore certain files
if you later realize you need them. This offers a layer of
safety when using XoftSpySE. |

the "ignore list" tab. This is where you can tell XoftSpySE
to ignore certain threats, if you have a reason to do so. |
Conclusion:
XoftSpySE is one of the most easy-to-use and feature packed spyware
detectors and removers. You really can't go wrong with this program.
It also comes with a 56-day money-back guarantee, which means if
you're not happy with the program for any reason - or no reason at
all - then you can get all of your money back, so you're never going
to be out of pocket.
