Manufactured by cybersecurity provider Lavasoft (formerly also known as Ad-Aware), adaware aims to combat the kinds of rogue applications and privacy invasions that many users aren’t even aware. It includes programs that alter your surfing habits, courses that block your browser start web page and applications that display annoying advertising at the most inconvenient times. This free program offers a number of features that will boost your device’s security and ensure it runs smoothly.

Adaware identified the majority of malware that we tossed at it. It had difficulty removing some malware, however. The program has a few useful extras, such as a privacy monitor and registry scanner. It also includes a file shredder, advanced network monitoring, as well as the privacy watch. It’s worth noting however, that adaware can’t offer the same level of protection as some of top antivirus tools in the market.

Adaware’s most recent participation in AV Test tests in the lab resulted in the blocking of just 95. 4% of 0-day threats and 97% of known threats. These aren’t bad scores but they’re not close to the best security suites.

Adware users who want to work better, should consider alternatives. We recommend Kaspersky, Bitdefender and others due to their reliability in real-world tests. Some users may be disappointed that only users of the Pro and Total plans have access to online customer and technical support. The company does provide numerous information and Frequently Asked Questions on its website.
