Adaware Review – Does Adaware Really Work?

It is manufactured by cybersecurity provider Lavasoft (formerly popularly known as Ad-Aware) Adaware is a security program that aims to tackle the types of rogue applications and privacy invasions that many consumers aren’t even aware of. It includes programs that alter your browsing habits, programs that hijack your browser’s start page and applications that show annoying ads at the most uncomfortable 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 we threw its way. However, it had trouble removing some malware, however. It also comes with useful extras, such as privacy monitors and a registry scanner. It also includes a file shredder, advanced monitoring of networks, and a privacy monitor. It is worth noting, though, that adaware doesn’t offer the same level of protection as some of top antivirus tools in the industry.

The last time adaware took part in AV-Test lab tests, it was able to block only ninety-five. 4% of 0-day threats and 97% of known threats. These aren’t bad numbers, but they’re not close to the best security suites.

Adaware users who are looking for improved performance should consider alternatives. We recommend Kaspersky and Bitdefender, which are renowned for their reliability in real-world tests. Additionally only Pro and Total plan users receive access to online technical and customer support, which may be a bit disappointing to some users. On its website, the company has many information as well as frequently asked questions.
