hese days more and more PC users get to learn how important it is to their online security to have a good antispyware program. However choosing the right one is not an easy task. Indeed, antispyware software comes in all shapes and with numerous additional features. Antispyware modules are found in registry cleaners and atomic clocks, weather software and hard drive defragmenters. It’s in the point of this article to discuss whether such integration is really beneficial to end-users. I will try to concentrate on reviewing a desktop security program – SUPERAntiSpyware.
In the eyes of tech-aware Windows users this tiny application may look too minimalistic because of very few extra options. SAS doesn’t include parental controls, it doesn’t play MP3 files and comes with no skin support.
But let’s face it, is there a real need for such extras? My strong belief is that every software should have a laser-targeted utilitarian mission; we don’t use Microsoft Office for creating videos, and we don’t open Notepad for creating cartoons. Every software performs well in its own area.
And so does SUPERAntiSpyware.
Because it comes as a stand-alone desktop application, it is lightweight, easy to install and navigate through simple interface. SAS engine is designed to fight malware -- newest rootkits, old-fashioned dialers, sneaky trojans. Below you’ll find a short list of features that I consider to be appealing to all conscious Windows users.
1. It’s a stable, reliable application. Causes no memory conflicts, co-resides peacefully with all major antivirus programs. Pity to say but many competing products never achieve this level of perfect coding despite being sold at a higher price.
2. Small memory footprint. While latest antispyware products often require up to 100 MB of RAM in idle mode, SAS real-time monitor uses under 400 Kilobytes of memory. Owners of older computers with limited RAM will like this program for that feature alone.
3. Daily automatic updates (SAS checks for updates 3 times a day). For every downloaded antispyware definition there’s a detailed description provided.
4. One-time payment makes a copy of this software eligible for lifetime updates. There are no recurring subscription fees.
5. A bunch of features to please both novices and experienced users. SAS helps to restore Network Configuration, desktop settings, unblock Windows modules (e.g. Task Manager, Registry Editor, Command Prompt Environment) commonly disabled by latest threats.
6. Supports Windows Server Editions. This is important because competing products often require a special (higher priced) license for Server-operated computers.
7. SAS can be updated on offline computers as well. The program website lists the latest installer to update each copy of the software with latest definitions. The installer can be downloaded onto a USB flash or other type of portable storage device.
8. Unlike other popular antispyware programs, SAS launches really fast even on slow machines.
But what about negative points?
Well, there are some, though I don’t really think of them as "negative".
1. SUPERAntiSpyware doesn’t replace real-time antivirus software and is not meant to, so having antivirus from other manufacturer is a necessity.
2. If a target computer is already infected with malware, SAS can fail to install. This is not the bug in the software, though. Some types of malware damage the Windows installation routine.
If you are a heavy surfer or your computer is used by many family members, chances are your online security is at risk of being compromised. By installing SUPERAntiSpyware you can run an instant scan with the option to remove detected malware, and test the performance of the real-time monitor.
