Lavasoft Ad-Adware Plus is an antivirus and antispyware protection package. Ad-Adware was Lavasoft’s flagship anti-spyware product in 2002, and the company has expanded since then to over a quarter of a billion Ad-adware downloads worldwide.

Lavasoft Ad-Adware Plus provides comprehensive cover for all aspects of computer usage whilst being light on resources. This includes the ability to control your privacy whilst shopping and surfing online through the TrackSweep. This allows you to erase your tracks when surfing on a number of browsers for example Internet Explorer or Firefox.

You can also take control by blocking harmful websites so as to protect your children online, and a behaviour-based detection so that downloaded files, photos and music cannot damage your computer.

Ad-Adware Plus has behavioural-based heuristic detection to keep your computer safe from known and unknown internet threats. The Ad-Watch Live!Advanced provides protection in real-time, giving constant coverage from any online threats.

The anti-rootkit removal system detects and destroys rootkits which can otherwise remain a hidden and destruction force on your computer. Lavasoft Ad-Adware Plus also detects and removes any other viruses, trojans, worms and spyware that may do damage.

As well as this, the Ad-Adware Plus provides a clean up after an attack on your computer, helping to restore your system and remove all traces if an infection had taken hold.

The Lavasoft Ad-Adware Plus integrates fully with Windows Security Center, and automatic updates make sure that your protection is kept up-to-date with any new threat that may be developed. Scans can be personalised to only scan areas you choose, and Lavasoft Ad-Adware Plus also has the ability to scan any external drives. This includes DVDs, iPods, USBs or any other external discs which may carry threats to your computer.

Lavasoft Ad-Adware Plus can be bought for a one, two or three year license, but before buying you can try the downloadable 30 day trial.
