Fighting Adware
AdWare is a category of malicious software that usually causes "Pop-Ups" on computers of Internet users. Unlike SpyWare, AdWare does not steal information; however, the results of AdWare accidentally installed on a PC can be also devastating. In the worst case, users completely loose control of their computers. Since AdWare installs itself on computers, pop-ups can appear even when Internet connection is off.
Ad-aware is one of the most advanced and up to date anti-AdWare software available today.
