A great but a little annoying antispyware program.

Transcript of Featured Review

Hi, I am Sam. I am going to talk about the Webroot's Spy Sweeper I purchased. I really purchased because my laptop had a lot of Trojan viruses, so they send me some to clean with. I was told to get Webroot Spy Sweeper. It's the best in the market. I would say -- it's spy cleaning is really fast unlike some products takes hours to clean up the computer. It was really nice. The bad thing I would have to say was that every time I tried to add some of my favorites on my computer, it'd pop up and say, should I cleaned it up. All I'd do it add some of my favorites and it pops up. And every time I start my computer, just running from beginning, this thing pops up and it ask me to clean it. I mean, it gets kind of irritating after a while because you don't want to clean it for the everyday, you know. But, it's safely first I guess, so that's a good thing about it. Another good thing is it removes suspects file. And the suspect it's on game or anything like that. Sometimes they tell you it's suspect, but this really makes sure. One bad thing, even though it does have a popup blocker, whenever it does stop a popup blocker. It uses another popup to stop that popup block. So you have double the popup blocks. So I guess it kind of irritates, but I mean I understand the safety. I am Sam. This is the Webroot's Spy Sweeper and it's good. Thank you.
