Editor's review of ZoneAlarm Anti-spyware

ZoneAlarm is best known for its award-winning personal firewalls, but it also makes its own killer antispyware application. After starting from scratch a few years ago, ZoneAlarm has steadily improved its scanning and detection capabilities. Its latest version of ZoneAlarm Anti-Spyware provides top-notch antispyware protection and, as an added bonus, also includes its award-winning personal firewall protection.

We also like its automatic updates and gaming option, allowing you to temporarily turn off those nettlesome alerts while in the middle of gameplay. Better yet, ZoneAlarm Anti-Spyware offers a tutorial at installation, and removes completely should you decide to uninstall it.

As for protection, ZoneAlarm excels in proactive protection against spyware, however, it could be better when removing all traces of known spyware from your PC. Merely disabling spyware isn't good enough in our opinion.

  ZoneAlarm Anti-spyware

  Wont update!!!

  by: hogmeister on 02-Apr-2008 03:52:07 AM

  Cons: I have had this included in my Zone Alarm suite for months.I cannot update the antispyware.I was told to do a clean uninstall and download again.I still cannot upload updates for the antispyware module. It doesnt really bother me, as I use SuperAntispyware pro and SpywareBlaster.It should work though.I know there have been issues with the AntiSpyware since a major update to the (Security Suite) progam around the 26th of March.
