SpyHunter 4.1

SpyHunter defines itself as an “adaptive malware removal tool”, meaning that it adapts to both the most current and the latest malware trends and to your system’s needs and specifications. This anti-malware utility performs deep and custom scans of your entire system looking for all kinds of rootkits, Trojans, and many other threats that may harm your computer.

The depth of its scanning processes, the amount of threats it can detect, the thorough information provided for each one of them, and the amount of extra services available both online and offline are really impressive. If only the trial provided were capable of truly erasing even a tiny amount of all the threats found, anyone testing SpyHunter would see it as a serious contender. Regrettably, you will need to buy a full license to be able to certify it delivers what it promises, which certainly harms the program’s credibility.

Leaving aside this serious drawback, SpyHunter’s scanning and threat detecting performance really catches your attention. While other similar tools simply count the number of threats found (in my opinion, a very suspicious practice), this program provides you with a large amount of information and with detailed explanations about what each of these threats is capable of doing to your system. System Guards – one of the various utilities provided – can detect processes with a suspicious behavior, capable of installing rootkits in your system that may open the door to Trojans and other malware. more
